Mac desktop. Supposedly there are new models coming out sometime
soon, but nothing rumored about the still vaporware models seemed
that significant to me, although they will be to others, I suspect,
who are more into computer games and heavy duty graphics and math
processing.
Also snagged a beta of Windows 7, which just about anyone can do
via Microsoft's open beta for at least the short term, and burned
it onto a DVD. It'll be the "alternatve" OS on the new Mac. I run
Vista as the alternative on my Macbook Pro, works fine.
And my old desktop machine is now updated and "ready" to be
"server-ized."
Is Windows 7 designed to be an upgrade from Vista, or is it
strictly a completely new OS install?

Windows 7 is a completely new OS, but is really just a improvement
over Vista, vs a major upgrade. It is basically Windows Vista with
the memory hog problems solved and to improve on the Windows Security
system so it will not be as aggravating. It is designed to be what
Vista should have been and suppossedly will run faster than both
Vista and XP on similar machines.
I think the MAC is a great machine, but I will be waiting on Windows
7 SP1 to upgrade my computer.
I have 3 machines with XP SP3 on them and they all have Windows 7.0 on
them. What exactly is Vista? What exactly is Windows 7.0? Did M-soft
slip Vista into my systems without my knowlege?
Windows 7 or Internet Explorer version 7.0?
The latter I would bet.
