Is this really true??? I have win 7 in my laptop and so far, I am really satisfied with it and I believe that this is better compared to vista. Is this bad for those using win 7 or what???

Explaining that the feature was "half there" in Windows 7, Gizis said his company realized "we have the rest of the software here, in our networking work."
Great work Gizis! Now you don't have to solve USCOMZ issues in N Baghdad!
