Debating whether to get Windows 7 or just stay with Vista
Digmaster:
I used Vista for a long time. I loved it, its awesome. But for a bit I used 7, and its worth the switch. The taskbar is worth it.
also: NETWORKING. Its a god at this. if you share folders and stuff, get it. Huge improvement
Now I use Ubuntu :D

Both of them were just horrible OSs that Microsoft pulled out of their ass, but I'd rather stick with Vista. Vista doesn't have an oversized taskbar, Vista isn't as laggy as Windows 7, Vista doesn't have as much default programs, Vista isn't as complicated, and Vista is more user-friendly.
Use XP or 2000 instead. They both pwn Windows Vista and 7 by a mile. Or, use Linux (specifically Ubuntu), it pwns all of them.

You should just go back to using a CLI, clearly you can't handle improvements nor any kind of technical understanding.

Actually, I'd prefer graphical OSs over command-lines.
No technical understanding? It needs tons of RAM to run without being slow, it would take up nearly half of my laptop's HD space before you would have enough space to save anything on it while running it. That's not really the whole point, though. I don't want to use a computer that gets too confusing after 5 minutes of use. If Windows' future depends on as much complication and user un-friendly features as CLIs did, then Vista and everything after that can suck it.

Are you really telling me to use incredibly outdated, obsolete, and inferior software? If so, get that stick out of your ass.
Also, Vista is not a stuffty operating system Microsoft pulled out of their ass. It had been 6? years since the release of XP, and so it was time for an improvement. Seven was pretty much a response to the bad publicity Vista (wrongfully) recieved.

Cry some more with your stuffty hardware. That's the problem, not the new software.
