I went to Apple with the advent of Vista. Never regretted it. My experience of Windows 7 is that it was the most stable variant I'd ever used. Microsoft and other major companies need to re-invent themselves every time period in order to keep themselves viable as a business, Hence they wish to 'force' consumers to use their latest gig - and in fairness, combatting security threats is getting more complex, although much of the threat appears to come via the browser these days. MS have had to delay all the previous out of support days - can't see this being any different.
