...and here, Windows 7 has been stable as a rock, even with the piles of crap I've thrown at it, a dying C drive and clone to a smaller drive, a dying Graphics card...and yet it just keeps on running.

only had 2 programs (Mechcommander and Mechwarrior 3 - so no surprise) fail to run and 1 bit of hardware (a Soundblaster Live! - way outta date) have issues with it... but those were no surprise at all.

it's basically the best windows to date in the opinion of a lot of users...
