It's been a blast so far. Everything works, and most of it even faster then Vista (the rest is aboot the same speed)


Also you can create webcam videos as your avatar in Live Messenger.

Sure sounds like the second coming. Whats new in regard to the "security center" and related things?

UAC is way better. Really improved. Disabling it easy, lowering how much you want it to watch can be changed and such. I haven't found anything so far that I don't like about this OS.

Been using it since the release of the beta.

I've had a BSOD that was driver-related (which isn't surprising for beta drivers on a beta OS) but apart from that I've got no reason to go back to XP. In fact, I'm not looking forward to switching back to XP in August. I love 7 too much!
