Windows 7,2009年的主流系统？

Win7之家（ www.win7china.com）：Windows 7,2009年的主流系统？

 由于微软最近的一系列Windows 7的Beta版本被泄露，越来越多的人认为微软会在2009年发布Windows 7。我不这么认为。

第一，很有可能直到第四季度我们都无法看到Windows 7正式版。由于Vista并未像微软想象中的那样成功，但Windows 7真的会是更好的选择吗？不管我们到底喜不喜欢Vista，但事实上我们之中的很多人都已经习惯于Vista，也找到了很多优化Vista性能和安全性的方法。

其他一些诸如Windows Server 2003，2008或Windows XP都已经很稳定了，尤其是最新的2个服务器版本上的技术，已经相当先进了。

当然，还有Linux。Netbook上，Linux可以正常安装并流畅运行，那么为什么要放着现成的免费系统不用而去安装Windows Vista，Windows 7甚至是Mac OS X呢？

小编：其实对于消费者而言，关心的不是2009年主流系统是什么，而是自己买来的机器上的系统是否好用，就这一点上来讲，相对于Linux，我还是觉得Windows 7比较适合普通消费者。

As Microsoft releases various betas of Windows 7 and new betas get leaked weekly, it looks increasingly like we’ll see Windows 7 in 2009. The question for this blogger is, should Windows 7 make its way into Ed Tech in 2009? The answer, in the spirit of 2009 predictions and resolutions, is no, for a heck of a lot of reasons.

The first, of course, is that Windows 7 won’t see the light of day before the fourth quarter, most likely. While that may or may not actually come to fruition, if it does, we all know the wait for the first service pack rule of Windows adoptions.

That being said, since Vista hasn’t been as successful as Microsoft might have hoped, is Windows 7 a better choice for new hardware than Vista? That’s a fine question, isn’t it? My thought, however, is that the devil you know is usually a better choice than the devil you don’t. Most of us have worked out the quirks of Vista and found ways to optimize the OS for security and performance, whether we actually like the OS or not.
