For some of you, Windows 7 is here. For others, it's coming soon. The question we as gamers all want to know is will Windows 7 finally deliver on all the hype that began during the run up to Vista’s launch. Will it finally "unite the clans": gamers who love Windows XP's performance and scalability, versus the Vista gamers who have been enjoying DirectX 10 visuals and performance enhancements found in games like Far Cry 2.

Haha Gambit, I was going to post the last page as well before I saw your reply, had it copied ready to paste. I hate how they now break these things up into multiple pages to generate more pageviews for their advertising.
