I just want to know. I still use XP, and I'm not sure if I want to upgrade to windows 7. I didn't like vista much and I don't know anything about windows 7, so could somebody describe the differences for me?

I know, but I don't know the actual differences. I'm getting it with my new computer and I know that it's better than Vista in every aspect.

Depends. If you have Vista, I think you can just upgrade it and you don't need to reinstall anything or transfer files. But if you have XP, I think you do have to do a clean install.

If you are running XP it is better to do a clean install but if you REALLY don't want to, then do this; upgrade to vista then upgrade to Windows 7.

^I'd like an answer on this actually, because if this is true, then I'll upgrade to W7 asap since Vista is annoying as hell in some aspects when I play PC games.

Yeah, confirmation, but whatever.
Apparently saying "I think" is THE factual answer nowadays?

I use uncertain language out of habit, but that's right.
