Default Windows 7

Well, Windows 7 is out and available to the public. Who has it and has messed with it?

I've got it running well, dual-booted with Windows Vista (soon to be quad-booted with Ubuntu and MS-DOS 7.10). It recognized most of my devices on the second run (after installing all the drivers and updates). All four partitions of the hard drive, the DVD drive, the floppy drive, and a USB drive appeared just fine.

It's not too shabby. My dad has it on a laptop.

He's got a weird default background...it morphs into something else everytime you turn it on...

I have tried it on my uncle's laptop.
I liked it a lot, and want to get it soon.

I haven't tried it yet, though I'm sure its not a whole lot different than Vista; which, to clarify, is also very good. I am anxious to get a new computer, but I won't be buying a separate license; I'll just dual boot it with Ubuntu.

I obtained a license through school. They have a partnership with MSDN (a part of Microsoft), so we get all kinds of free software, including full licenses to operating systems. Three months, and I love it more than Vista.

I got mine cheap cause I'm a student. I can tell you that it's MUCH better than Vista.

It must have been pretty bad, haven't you said it once crashed on you?
