----
Windows 7 feeals solid. I have a video tour, write up, etc on my site (atomicsub.net).
I'm quite confident that XP and Vista users will transition to 7 as it's simply a better OS, faster, responsive, stable for now.
Citrix and VMWare will have a go but Windows, OS X and Linux should remain with higher market share. Particularly, because users can run multiple VM environments on current day systems.
I run full versions of CentOS, Solaris 10, Win XP, Win 7, and Win Server 2008 R2 on a Macbook Pro! (10 at the same time on our Sun x64 Server)
Virtualization will change the game.
Windows 7 takes certain features from OS X and certain Linux distros (RHEL, CentOS).
BUT, these latter operating systems have been doing what 7 has finally achieved (fast, responsive, stable, etc.)for a while - and there's nothing really 'revolutionary' about that.
If you agree, disagree or just want to read about technology, check out atomicsub.net, I have submitted a few posts to slashdot. currently pending. Lot's of cool stuff on the site.
