    Windows 7?

    Anybody else giving it a shakedown?

    First impression is its faster then Vista but not as quick as XP SP3 is.

    Of course... I really like it so far. It's what Vista should have been in the first place. I do suggest a clean install and not the upgrade. The only issues I have encountered so far is some problems when using multiple displays and that it does not dock/undock very well.

    Our company is participating in the official partner test program and we even got invited (out of thousands of applicants from the Small Business sector) to go to the launch event, whenever that might be.

    What kind of hardware are you running it on?

    I have a clean install on a partion on my Acer T180, 2.2 GHz, 2g ram.

    All 3 monitors worked right off the bat for me, but Ultramon dosent work with 7. The onboard ethernet that wouldnt work with XP works just fine with 7. No issues with my server.

    My XP machine is still faster.

    My hardware would die if I tried to run Windows 7. Plus, I still prefer Linux over it. From the reviews I have seen, though, it looks to be better than Vista ever was/is.

    The finale version wont be out till later in the year, this is the Beta test version.

    Ive been playing with it most of the day, I might have to get the finale version when the Beta stops working.
