Windows 7 has got a lot of positive feedback compared to Vista. It's also shipped with new computers, so it will continue to grow.

Windows 8 is still a few years away.

April 2012 is very close ... How popular will Windows 8 be..it all depends on the marketing it will have.Windows 7 wasn't a cheap OS so not many will like the fact that after 2 or 3 years they need to pay again for an OS. (XP legacy)
Microsoft will put some serious money in promoting Windows 8.... and we should also expect a ton of articles in which W7 will be bashed.Titles like : Windows 7 major security holes! Update now! will be everywere!

When it comes from vulnerability in the future, of course Windows 8 will be least than Windows 7.

Like before Windows 7 have least vulnerability since its a latest OS than Vista and XP.
