Windows 7 ...

Mandriva !

just 2 videos from Youtube ,, wish u all enjoy it

I've used the beta of WIndows 7, never used Mandriva. From the YouTube videos, Mandriva visually looks like a much cooler OS.

In this case, you're not comparing Windows 7 to Mandriva Linux but the Windows 7 UI to the Compiz Fusion window manager, which can run on various Linux distributions and probably on non-Linux Unix OSes, if one were to get it to build from source.

Peace...

I have windows 7....and for those who do, if you have norton antivirus, REMOVE IT NOW. It causes tons of problems on your computer and eats up memory, I found Kespersky antivirus made specifically for windows 7, I've recently installed it and now my computer is amazingly well and I wouldn't trade this OS for another considering I'm a heavy gamer and this OS works well with direct x 10.
