Using it atm - pretty good. Runs pretty smoothly on my ancient computer. Start is up is almost as fast as Linux (but I'm sure it'll slow down once I actually get to using it). On dual boot atm (XP + 7). Not adventurous enough to try a triple boot with Ubuntu as well :mrgreen:

For the 1st time i can actually say windows 7 is indeed very good, almost every piece of hardware is covered by onboard native windows drivers.

On a very new 64 bit build i only had to install 1 driver upon and it runs far better than vista
i have been useing 64 bit ultimate for about 3 weeks now at home and in work and i would say its a joy to work with compared to vista.

I would advise anyone with the required hardare specs to support it to go ahead you will love it, but try to stay away from the upgrade path as previously mentiond by Phil in this post.

Most full versions provide you with a 32 and 64 bit copy which is nice.

Vista as it should of been
