I'm not criticising Windows 7 except for the fact I don't quite think it's worth it. No matter what the final release will look like. Even though you can preorder it now, so there won't be a lot of difference!
Anybody wanting a new computer must have 7 on it but I don't see the point in upgrading from Vista when it's just cosmetics...

I will be upgrading to Windows 7, Ultimate, SP1, on my next new laptop. ;)

Just been testing it out...Ultimate 7 that is!
Yes some nice features...
Great for new purchases!
Not so great for upgrades!!!
I like it very much but not enough to pay for an upgrade though.
