its a link to download it. Its a free download because its a beta version.

I haven't used Vista, only XP for the past couple of years but I think its way better then XP. I think its worth downloading.

Can you run anything pirated on it?
That's all I'm really concerned with...

If all there is just new a glossy theme or some shit like that, or new cursors, new icons, etc. I'm not really interested, cuz I can get that same shit for XP.

And as for running fast... it all depends on your computer and what you put on it and what it can handle... and of course when you do a fresh install things are going to be fast.

Vista uses more RAM..... XP is faster that's why they are offering downgrades for $150.00 now.

It's like when New Coke came out and everyone hated it then they brought back Coke Classic... Bill Gates is a genius... build a resource hog and force every new computer to install it, then offer XP for people who want to downgrade from the upgrade???

Well it look slike W7 is just an "upgrade" so to speak for Vista users. It utilizes some of the same shit, but adds support for touch and voice recognition.
I upgraded from XP, ive never used Vista so I wouldn't know. All I know is Windows 7 is a lot faster then XP, not to mention when im booting up it asks if I want to start Windows 7 or XP. IMHO its worth trying, its not going to delete your current OS.
