"Anyone buying a PC with Windows 7 pre-installed will be able to swap it for XP or Vista.
Microsoft has confirmed that the licence conditions under which the software will be sold will allow people to downgrade.
The conditions will apply to both businesses that buy licences for Windows in bulk and consumers that get the operating system on a PC or laptop.
No firm date has been given for the release of Windows 7's final version."

WTMG's Leo Faria: "Reigns: The Witcher is superbly well-written, and masterfully integrated into the world and lore of Andrzej Sapkowski and CD Projekt Red’s works. It doesn’t feel like a cheap cashgrab. On the contrary, you can clearly see that Devolver, CDPR and Nerial worked together in order to come up with an engaging random story simulator that feels right at home in this world full of liars, deceivers, and terrible outcomes for everyone. Granted, it’s not the most action-packed game in existence, but think of it as you role-playing as a bard, coming up with nonsensical ballads about imaginary heroes on-the-fly. It might actually be the closest to a true role-playing game The Witcher has ever felt in videogame form, even if the gameplay is still as complex as scrolling through Tinder when you have nothing else better to do."

A multiplayer parkour experience, Parkour Labs, is making its way to PlayStation 5 with PSVR 2 support next month alongside a PC update also adding VR support.

Thats not like Micro$oft..
I can see some people going back to their beloved XP, but Vista? I mean, from what I heard and from my own experience in the W7 Beta, there's absolutely no reason to choose vista over 7.
I can understand large companies if they chose to downgrade to xp if only to avoid the obvious hastle involved in any office upgrade but any day to day consumer would have to be mad to downgrade,i own xp and vista on this laptop im typing on fom my bed,its currently running the beta of windows 7 and it feels to me like the most mature and intuitive OS microsoft have ever released,it makes xp feel like a toy-imo.
Whether or not Windows 7 is better than XP is debatable, but it is definitely better than Vista. And the shut down button is back to where it should be!!!!! ^_^
