Why Microsoft Windows 7 XP Mode Is a Major Advancement - 0 views

  • free of charge to Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise and Ultimate users
    • John Lundin
       
      ...so, it is not really "free"... you gotta have a top tier W7 edition... again this hits the budget-minded XP user hard.
  • Even hardware that works with older operating systems and won't work with Windows 7 will work with Windows XP mode. It's a major advancement
    • John Lundin
       
      ...let me see if I have this right... the XP mode will run on hardware that W7 won't run on... then how the hell do you install W7 to get the XP mode?
  • With XP Mode installed, users will never need to worry about the compatibility of their software or accessories again -- everything will work.
    • John Lundin
       
      will work... provided you have a PC with the horsepower to run both W7 and XP mode... so will just leaving XP as your OS.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • application released for a Windows operating system over the past decade will work with Windows 7
    • John Lundin
       
      ...but not every PC manufactured in the past decade will be able to run W7... so budget wise, I gotta buy W7 *and* a new PC to run my XP apps. I don't see a need to change (other than to build MSFT's coffers... and that is not one of my business objectives).

Windows 7 alluring, but XP is the migration X factor - Network World - 0 views

  • Allred is in the process of testing Windows 7, which he says is faster, more stable and seems leaner than Vista.
    • John Lundin
       
      ...but what is the compeling reason to upgrade besides the threat that MSFT will pull support?
  • a Vista migration would have meant upgrading 60% of his hardware, something he was not prepared to do. With Windows 7 and its smaller footprint, the majority of his hardware is already compatible.

Page 2 - Why Microsoft Windows 7 XP Mode Is a Major Advancement - 0 views

shared by John Lundin on 02 Jun 09 - Cached
  • Some companies still haven't upgraded to Windows Vista (or new hardware, for that matter) due to fear of losing Windows XP
    • John Lundin
       
      ...not for fear of "losing" XP, but for realizing that everything is fine with XP and that you don't have to spend $$ for new OS and even more $$ for new PCs. You are suggesting a solution to a problem that does not exist (although you are pushing hard to convince us!) One of my favorite comments to salesmanship like this is "if this is the answer, then what was the question?"

Windows 7 alluring, but XP is the migration X factor - Network World - 0 views

  • Windows 7 will deliver on its promises
    • John Lundin
       
      ...what promises? Rather than test W7 I am quite likely to test Ubuntu or the like... If I gotta change, I might as well move to a platform that will give me both flexibility and support on hardware I already own!... Comments?

Windows 7's XP Mode and Security - 0 views

  • For business users who skipped Windows Vista, Windows 7's newly announced Windows XP Mode (XPM) must be intriguing. Yes, you will have to cough up some serious money for new hardware and software, but the really scary and disruptive stuff—whether your old software will work—is far less of an issue than it used to be.
    • John Lundin
       
      ...Tell me again why I want to upgrade to Vista or Windows7...?
  • I hope the crossover problems never materialize and that XP users take the opportunity to move on to modern software.
    • John Lundin
       
      Hoping is one thing... upgrading for today's SMB is entirely different. The risk, cost, disruption, aggravation of this upgrade is not justified by the benefits... I continue to experiment with the newer OSes, but all my professional production is done on XP... and I continue to tell my clients to wait for a *real* reason to wanna change... Change is painful!!
