Windows 7 is only the big brother of Vista. So, basically, it does suck.

XP still dominates the top operating systems in use with 61.87% of users. Vista got 14.34%.

Win7 got 14.46% of users, meaning it passed Vista this month. All data is gathered July 2010.

For the record, I agree that Vista sucks but I've tested the D-Mod on Vista and XP and on Vista it runs much better. No idea about Windows 7 really.

I have Windows 7 and it runs fairly good. If your Dmod is somehow "optimized for Windows Vista" (which seems unlikely if you ask me), it should run well on Win7, too.

I am an XP loyalist for now... Vista was a crazed attempt to trade blows with the sloshiest bollocks of our times: Apple and it's OS X. They say that, like XP, Vista was crap before the SP's.

Regardless, Vista is a symbol of modern superficiality: it's all very graphical. It lacks the raw glory of XP. They say 7 is a big improvement.

They = people who are supposed to know these things

The look isn't too important, the functionality. Windows Vista still has a few default themes you can switch out of.

Think positiv. Say NO. 
On one I have Vista (64-bit) and on the other XP.

With Vista Dink runs by far not as good as on XP. May be you guys know how I can get rid of the short pauses Vista is creating when I play Dink in window mode?

On a VM with XP it runs as good as on the real XP machine.

"Kyle, you just said exactly what was said when Vista was released. "

Yeah, but I've been using Windows 7 since beta and haven't had ONE major problem with it Unlike Vista where I installed it once, crashed 3 times in a week and uninstalled it xD

Win7 beta was better than vista even tho its built on vista. Me likes win 7 but its still annoying - take me back to win 95 or at worst 98 but 3.11 was better than em all Less invasive and didn't take off and do things without you knowing or wanting ... sighs
