I've already upgraded.. was suprised the upgrade process worked. Both on a laptop with XP Pro and my Media Center running MCE 2005.

Interface is 100 times better than expected, program layout is more enjoyable, the desktop widgets actually create a friendly environment, the games are all updated, the integration with office 2k7 is pretty tight.

Only thing i struggle with are the changes to the control panel but i'm trying to stick to Aero and not drop back to the boring old interface.

Everything worked as well. No driver issues for me. My ATI 9800 has no problem running the full blown system on an athlon 64 with 1 gig ram. My laptop is a tad bit slower with a Geforce 2 go but it still runs fine.

good job ms.. a beta thats almost useable to test for a change :)
