what is the disadvantage in windows 7?

what is the disadvantage in windows 7? because all are saying that windows xp is better than windows 7 what is the reason?

If you are upgrading from Windows 98 you will need to be sure you have enough system resources (RAM memory especially) as Windows 7 requires more from your computer and Win98 was released at a time when most computers shipped with half a Gigabyte of memory or less. Windows 7 works best with several Gigabytes of RAM.

1. Requirements high, too hot deal:

Windows Vista, the next generation operating system requires superb computer to install. It consumes a lot more resources than its predecessor windows XP. For vista Aero to work, you need to invest something more than what you would have expected to invest before. The graphics card requirement is quite high. The graphics card must be of DirectX 10 supported. The required minimum graphics memory on the graphics card is 128 MB. For better performance, graphics memory must be of 256 MB. The minimum hard disk space required is 20 GB for installation of Windows Vista. Processor speed is also expected to be high for Aero to work smoothly without causing any hiccups. The memory requirement for Windows Vista system is high. The system will work smoothly when one has got RAM of about 2 GB installed. Totally, I would like to say that, Windows vista eats up lot of resources, than its predecessor, the Windows XP.
2. Regarding price, sucking your hard earned money:

The price of [COLOR=#009900]Windows Vista Ultimate[/COLOR] edition seems to be too high. Ordinary user cannot thus, have a look into all the features of Vista, which is only available in the Ultimate Edition. Microsoft seems to be not so interested in country wise markets. The prices are set according to the US market. However these prices are on higher side for developing asian countries. Microsoft should set the price of Vista as per the market. It is the time for Microsoft to think over this aspect, having introduced stricter validation process.
3. Replace the oldies, another way of extracting:

This is a usual problem, which always exists whenever new operating system gets released, and you have an old system or have some old components in the system. If one decides to install windows vista in the old system, then they should check the compatibility of system components, checking whether Vista supports them or not. Some manufacturers will still provide Vista support for the oldies by providing the [COLOR=#009900]latest drivers[/COLOR] for the same. If manufacturers are not providing the latest drivers, you need to purchase a new device as a replacement for the existing device. Before, you purchase a new device you need to check out for Vista compatible or Vista ready logo, which is put up on the device.
4.Window appearance. Did you like the different look?

In Windows Vista, the window appearance underwent lot of unwanted changes. The windows in Windows Vista, the window appears similar to that of MAC OSX. The Minimize, Maximize, and Close buttons, wore a different look. The three buttons got reduced in their sizes, making them unclear to aged people, people with eye sight problems. The minimize, maximize, and close buttons have reduced in sizes. The icon in the other end has disappeared, which makes the window slightly dull in appearance.
In overall, the new operating system, Windows Vista is said to be an ideal replacement to its predecessor, the Windows XP

I think the compatibility is still a big issue on Win7, you might need to upgrade your applications, too, if you want them to run correctly on Win7.

Have a nice day,

I think its just trying to get used to it. I know a lot of the classic view setting are gone and you just have to get used to the new format. Seems pretty secure and faster than Vista.

I'm using Windows 7 from almost 8 months and didn't find any problem yet so i said that there is some disadvantages of Windows 7. On my PC Windows 7 works better and load faster than any OS.

Not tried windows 7 yet but I noticed that I loads the software slowly as I saw this on my brother-in-laws laptop.

some of my old drivers didn't work, its ok, just updated them via internet, you really have to have nice pc specs to appreciate windows 7, 2gb ram higher video card, dual core etc

Its not user friendly.
