Yeah, it is a bit wierd.

 

That said, I've been liking the windows 7 RC I've been running, it's great!

Makes me think of the Paranoia RPG.

for some reason having a child, that can't pronounce the words she is trying to use, make a decent looking slide show with fairly epic music completely destroys any credit that commercial might have for me.  I could suspend disbelief for a resteraunt or something a small child might get excited seeing, but not for a new OS.  I love windows 7, and if I wasn't so deticated to buying it this commercial might make me NOT buy it.  

Its like, if they have a solid product, why much they be reduced to such a low marketing scheme as "we'll have a small child.  And the child will call windows 7 and its reviews 'happy'."   I just imagine some super dirty marketing department rubbing their hands together and saying "yes, the ignorant masses can't resist children.  They will eat it up"

  Have wanted to try it, a friend has it on their laptop, way cool!!! 

Of course, its well... haha, not quite here yet, and my laptop doesnt have an upgrade option, so

that means.... hmmmm..... buying it at retail. I have thought of going back to xp. but doesnt have

all the software for the different programs on it, and so dont know about that.

Anyway,    Might be a nice difference from Vista though.  Faster maybe, ahhhhh.... now that would be nice!

Haven't seen the little kiddos that populate Bellevue and Redmond public schools, have you?  Many are scary smart.
