win7 forum is just a bad idea
Ok, here is my opinion.
Just like the nvidia drivers section, if windows forum is to be divided it should be divided. XP forum Vista/7 Forum Vista and 7 share much of heritage, both share same drivers, and have more in common. XP/Vista forum just doesn't make sense.

Re: win7 forum is just a bad idea
I wouldn't put Vista and 7 in the same section. That's like putting suck and pretty good in the same category, it just doesn't work.

Re: win7 forum is just a bad idea
Well it does make sense how it's done right now. It's just like with the graphics cards. The latest series gets it's own forum, then all of the legacy cards share their own. XP and Vista are the legacy OSes, and Windows 7 is the current OS.

Re: win7 forum is just a bad idea
In one aspect I agree with nekro:
XP = 5.1 Vista = 6.0 Win7 = 6.1 But at the same time, there is much more Windows7 news than XP/Vista, so keeping the two separate will help eliminate clutter. |

Re: win7 forum is just a bad idea
zoomyfail? What are you on about? Tell who to use Linux? Have you seen 7 zoomy? For home desktop use 7 has no peer IMHO.

Well there you go. zoomy and his wife use Linux, might as well shut down the entire windows and PC gaming section.
