This is the best advice for EVERYONE thinking about using Win7. Microsoft's

Generally I tend to agree with that - People SHOULD wait till SP1 for any

I am amazed at my 99% trouble free operation (from install to using all the
programs I require)
I really expected Windows7 to be a new level of sucking (a level up from
vista) but I was quite surprised.
Pure experience. I use it on my development machine and really like it (and
I really do need every byte of the 12Gb of memory I have on it) but my
customers are not enjoying it so much which is translating into a less than

I completely understand it and the only real benefit our colleagues will see
is that some of their programs and drivers won't work, especially because:

No offense taken. You are correct that the Win7 64 bit system I put

This is a testament to the flat response and great signal processing in

The PA can take a high SWR for a little bit of time. It is the responsibility
