I get this question, worded in this way, a lot. First, Armitage is a front-end that provides a workflow and collaboration tools on top of Metasploit. The CORRECT question is: does Metasploit have attacks that work against Windows 7 and Windows Vista?

The answer is yes. REMOTE exploits against modern Windows versions are very rare. If you're hoping for this, please put these days behind you. Microsoft has a lot of smart people and they've put a lot of work into reducing mistakes that lead to exploitable CONDITIONS. They have also added mitigations to their software to make it harder to turn a programmer's mistake into an attack.

Attackers do what works and they have moved on. Now, to break into a modern system, you need to attack the applications the user is running and not the operating system. Client-side attacks against Internet Explorer, Firefox, Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, APPLE QuickTime, and Java are very COMMON. Metasploit is the cutting edge of what's publicly available in this space.

Once you get a foothold, it's up to you to think like an attacker and use your position to gain access to other systems. There are resources available for your learning. I suggest that you go study them. If you're really serious about learning these ideas then invest in yourself and take a class.
