Downgrade plan for Windows 7 PCs

BBC News writes:

"Anyone buying a PC with Windows 7 pre-installed will be able to swap it for XP or Vista.

Microsoft has confirmed that the licence conditions under which the software will be sold will allow people to downgrade.

The conditions will apply to both businesses that buy licences for Windows in bulk and consumers that get the operating system on a PC or laptop.

No firm date has been given for the release of Windows 7's final version."

I can see some people going back to their beloved XP, but Vista? I mean, from what I heard and from my own experience in the W7 Beta, there's absolutely no reason to choose vista over 7.

Information Minister5543d ago

Hardware demands will surely be higher for Windows 7. It's the only reason I can think off to choose Vista over W7.

Anyway, MS sure seems confident in their new product.\sarcasm

Kami5543d ago

is not that M4 is not confident. They know People just b1ich too much about everything.

No, they're actually lower. Especially memory, Windows 7 uses less than a third Vista does.

CRAIG6675543d ago

I can understand large companies if they chose to downgrade to xp if only to avoid the obvious hastle involved in any office upgrade but any day to day consumer would have to be mad to downgrade,i own xp and vista on this laptop im typing on fom my bed,its currently running the beta of windows 7 and it feels to me like the most mature and intuitive OS microsoft have ever released,it makes xp feel like a toy-imo.

JohnClark5541d ago

Whether or not Windows 7 is better than XP is debatable, but it is definitely better than Vista. And the shut down button is back to where it should be!!!!! ^_^
