>>The general consensus seems to be that it looks like Vista, but it's a solid and fast as XP.

That's funny, I've read a lot about Windows 7 and I've yet to see a comparison where it's faster than XP. The consensus I've seen is that each Windows release has been slower than the prior. This happens because MS realizes they can continue to push more software at faster hardware.

The knock on Vista was the nag screens and drivers. I've yet to see a BSOD, which I have on XP.

My experience is that Vista was better than XP, which was better than 2000 Pro, which was better than NT.
