When will Windows 7 be released?
Common question. There is no official release date set yet. There is speculation for everything between fall of this year and summer of next year.

It will probably be coming out this Fall. There was some talk that the next version of Office will be delayed until 2010, but that doesn't seem to be effecting the next version of Windows.

Like I did on Vista, I will wait. The only reason I have vista on my LT is because it came with it and I don't have the funds to buy another license for XP pro

I have not heard that good about Vista and was hoping to avoid that. :(

I just ordered a new computer from Dell for my brother yesterday. I was very specific about NOT wanting it to come with Vista. For $60 more, they got him one with XP, but will send the Vista disc along so he can upgrade if he chooses to. I told him that if he ever does, I will personally come and break all 10 of his fingers!

I am using Vista 64-bit on my personal computer and LOVE it! I used XP Pro for 6 years prior after swearing I would NEVER stop using Windows 98/98 SE, which in turn I used for several years after swearing I would NEVER stop using Windows 3.1/3.11.
Before that I was a Commodore Amiga person and thought it would take over the world from the evil PC's!
