What's different to you about Explorer that you think will have adoption issues? My main travel laptop has Win7 on it and I am comparing it to my WS08 workstation and it seems roughly the same? There are some extra root node odds and ends that I haven't looked at at-all on the tree but seems

No the way the Sidebar is setup is nice I don't think the users will object to it. The taskbar will present another training issue but most of the users don't even think of it or notice it much. I will show this setup to a few people Tuesday and see if any of them want to try being a tester.
