Well, I too came from XP, and switched to W7 with very minimal excitement.
I loved my XP system, but figured, I'm getting a new quad core, why the hell not give it a try.

I'm disappointed that a few things aren't working correctly (due to Windows 7 not being supported- yet), as my Scanner, CanoScan Lide30, will not work at all, so I'm HOPING, Canon is still working for a driver.

As far as the GUI, it's nice, and I like it, I have a new custom system, not the most expensive, but damn good, (AMD Athlon II X4 620 [2.66GHz], 4GB RAM, nVidia 250 GTS), it's lagging like hell! Yes, W7 is lagging! WTF right!

So I'm waiting to pick up a new secondary hard drive (switching to Sata, wooo), new DVD Drive (Burns but doesn't read...), then I'll reinstall W7 because it was great with my last duo core setup..
