I hope Win7 comes in a better box than Vista did on release day

The box that Vista came in was a PITA to get open. Hope Microsoft didn't
decide to use the same stupidly designed box.

There aren't any new features inside the box (unless you can call the
removal of old features a new feature) so yes, hopefully the packaging will
offer some.

Thanks. Same box shape but no more of that ridiculous orange tape strip
to pull that didn't work and broke when you pulled on it. I literally
had to pry mine open to get to the DVD. Hope Microsoft got their money
back from the company that designed the Vista box.

Yes, it was the opening method that was a PITA and not the box itself
and I see they have removed the offending part(s). Thanks to people like
me who bitched about it to them.

You must have a lot of time on your hands and you do not know what to do with time.
Why post something irrelevant or meaningless as you just did

For the same reason you wasted your time posting the above. ****wit.
