Microsoft is Touchy About Windows 7

November 23, 2009

On October 22, 2009, Microsoft released its newest version of Windows, called Windows 7 featuring touch screen technology.  This is the latest in a long list of upgraded operating systems that is full of promises.  While initial reviews are good, only time will tell if can live up to the hype.  The previous Windows version, Vista, was touted as being ultra secure, but many users grew frustrated with it as it required multiple authorizations for approved functions.  It was also a “heavy” software that requires significant hard drive space and memory.  Many users were sorry to have transferred to Vista and some downgraded to its predecessor, Windows XP.  In fact, Vista was so reviled that it took only eight hours of pre-sale for 7 at amazon.co.uk to surpass Vista’s sales for its first 17 weeks!  All of this has given Microsoft’s competitor, Apple Computer, much fodder to mock the software giant and steal some of its customer base.
