From people who have it, they say windows 7 provides both looks and performance, and is def a thumbs up, some, like myself, will wait till programs are more adaptable with the OS before upgrading.
I tried putting vista onto my 5 year old xp computer, it failed miserably.
i put Win7 Ultimate on it, works a little bit faster than XP ran on it.
I have had absolutely no compatibility issues with windows7, where i have with vista.
windows 7 is also the best for running hacks, since it has about 12 different compatibility mode options.
the GUI is overall better. the big icons and the whole new taskbar style is great.
aero peak is awesome...
its just overall great.
