    Some of my friends said it's pretty good. Are you guys going to get one, once windows 7 is released?

    Vista isn't that bad, but still not that good either. So probably, I'll switch over upon release :D

    7 is like a fast version of Vista, but with better compatibility and a good taskbar :)

    it runs so much faster than vista, on par with XP but not as dull looking lol

    Well I'm still on XP because of all the problems Vista has had... Should I wait for 7's kinks to be worked out or jump on it right away?

    there's no real huge bugs, had this running without restart since first install... 14 days and no crash, no overheating etc, not a single problem thus far :)

    sorry but linking directly to any files or torrents would probably end with me being banned, but search for "Windows 7 AIO Activated" and you'll probably find one on a torrent site :)

    Personal opinion, but I always wait until the first service pack or so before diving in, just because I don't feel like dealing with potential issues on my home PC. Having said that, I've had 7 on my machine since Beta, and it's far more stable than Vista. I have had minor issues, but nothing major so far. I mean, nothing a reboot didn't solve, and it was more related to 3rd party software than to anything else.

    A friend of mine has been using a cracked version for a while. He told me he enjoys using Windows 7 and that it is much better than Windows Vista.
