Re: Masters of Orion II
Windows 7 is not really directly backwards compatibile. Apparently it will use virtualization to hopefully accomplish compatibilty. It will probably work with more mainstream programs than ones that aren't but I think it will be hit or miss personally. Time will tell.
Windows 7 is a bit more than just a Vista fix. But MS isn't really ignorant of needs but it becomes a tradeoff. How much windows bloat to be able to run most old software while trying to keep the pc efficient and fast. Or just start over.
It's like those stupid gum commercials where the person is chewing the same piece of gum forever. The gum company sales drop thru the floor and they resort to ambushing the gumchewers to get their gum back and force the person to buy a new piece. While to an extent this is funny, it is also very very true. If you don't keep up with your competitors and keep selling new items for lower cost, then you're out of business. True for MS and ANY other company out there. It's the world we live in.
