They have a deal for it for $30 for students (really anybody with a .edu address) and I've been seriously thinking about it, but I figure if I had a copy of it I'd end up having to spend half my day moving everything from my XP install.

Win 7 is a good. But I think I will stick to XP Pro until the price drops a bit, and they iron out any major bugs! - Theres always a few!

I think i'll def be getting windows 7, had vista before and hated it, so had to revert back to XP, but I def think i'll be jumping on the Windows 7 bandwagon as I'm fed up of XP. Does anyone know of any bugs with Win 7?

I will be getting Win 7 with a laptop sometime this month, after the other PC in the house decided to die :(

I'll get it when I get a new laptop, which is on the to do list at some point as I want a Blu-ray drive.

I'm running the RC at the moment as my primary.

I'll definitely be upgrading to the full version. Snow Leopard is good'un too - but nothing wowish to make Windows users change when they haven't wanted to change with previous OS X releases.

Sorry to you all but I am right now running Win 7 Pro on laptop (32bit) and Desktop (64bit) and it's pretty damn good! Everything works like it should, using 10% less RAM than Vista too, always nice.

Well worth picking up!
