    It could also mean that Vista was such utter shit that even non-nerds are buying 7 to install on their current hardware just to get away from it. :)

    Coincidentally, Internet Explorer 6's user share took a dramatic hit since Windows 7's release, yet Internet Explorer 8 didn't see that huge an increase.

    Instead, it looks like users were split between Firefox and Chrome for their new browser of choice.

    Mazel tov, nerds: we're becoming the majority.

    Just installed Windows 7 over my existing Vista installation (just got my copy from Lenovo today). Went pretty smoothly, and I'm glad to be back to 7.

    It's not consumer products that really matter that much, but business adoption where Microsoft will see real gains. Too bad the old mantra of "wait for SP1" is still around.

    It is a sad testimony to the utter failure of the UMPC concept to capture market share that you refer to this device as "netbook-like". #xpphonewindowsxp

    alright, maybe i am off base here, but why not just make a smartbook that relies on a bluetooth ear piece for any actual phone talkingness and the rest (texting, internet browsing, anything really) be contained in something bigger than a phone and smaller than a tablet? why doesn everyone think you have to hold the actual device up to your darn head? #xpphonewindowsxp

    Interesting that this would be the first and only "phone" so far that would make me drop my iPhone 3GS in a heartbeat.

    Finally, Skype/IM video conferencing on a "phone" over a US cell carrier. #xpphonewindowsxp

    Does the 7 inch screen version even bother with phone functionality? I can't imagine anyone trying to talk with that thing pressed against their face. #xpphonewindowsxp

    Luckily its not related to the hardware architecture so I'm sure next quarters patch updates will include programing to improve on processor efficiency. #netbooks

    I get the same battery life as I did in XP on my Macbook Pro. I can get a little over 2 hours max with wifi off, screen almost off, and doing basic tasks. #netbooks
