Under the hood, Windows 7 is not much different than Windows Vista. The UI in Windows 7 resembles of that Windows Vista&#8217;s. So what&#8217;s new with Windows 7?<\/p>\n<p>The tech community seems to agree that Windows 7 is a polished Windows Vista. It is Windows Vista cleaned-up. I can&#8217;t help myself from asking the question why Windows 7 still costs to much for consumer to buy? Are there any significant benefits upgrading to Windows 7 from Windows Vista? Is it wise to upgrade a Windows XP computer\u00a0 to Windows 7?<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, it&#8217;s better to buy a new computer with Windows 7 pre-installed.<\/p>\n<p>Windows 7 now features a less annoying UAC (User Account Control). If you&#8217;re running as an administrator, UAC will bug you a lot less to a point it wouldn&#8217;t bug you at all. In a way that&#8217;s a step back in security from Windows Vista.<\/p>\n<p>I am interested in what Microsoft could come up with the successor to Windows 7.
