I think I'll just keep using the release candidate until it expires (I only use it on a VM anyway), and then hopefully by that time the price will have gone down a bit...

...But probably not.

My son got the free upgrade when he bought his laptop before school started. He knows nothing- really! about computers, other than the basics of what he needs it for. I wonder if Windows 7 will really be better than Vista? Guess I'll have to wait to hear from 'real' users- everything else is just hype for now, right? I know that the little I've seen of Vista I did not like. My office computer came with Vista, and my support dept was so disgusted with it that they took Vista off and replaced it with XP.

Windows 7 is what Vista was supposed to be. It's a lot more stable and smoother. It's a lot like Windows Me and Windows XP really..

I've been forced to run win 7 since it was released to enterprise customers in August (final, not beta/rc/etc). Not very impressive. I think it's also interesting how some major reviewers are starting to change their tone as well: Study: Windows 7 doesn't boot faster | Beyond Binary - CNET News
