I ran vista for years with no issues (never mind how it imploded at the end...), and windows 7 is really 90% vista. Vista just had driver issues early on that gave everyone such a bad taste of it. And that's more about third party cooperation then about Microsoft (though their vendor distribution really left little room for companies to really test their new drivers before launch). The other thing that hurt vista was how much underpowered hardware was sold as "vista ready" and packaged with vista that had every bell & whistle on (plus a bunch of junk software) so they ran like dogs, and people blamed vista for it.

On the original topic, how're things working so far?
