I'm running the Windows 7 beta at the moment, but I'm seriously considering going back to XP Pro, as I can't stand the slowness of it! This is inherited from Vista, and hasn't changed yet. The OS itself is beautiful and not nearly so in-your-face as vista was, a great upgrade, but unfortunately browsing files in Windows Explorer is still tortureously slow. Not very fun at all when you're messing around with Mediaportal plugins and skins, installing them manually, moving xml files around, etc. It's a shame cause I really wanted this OS to be good. Would have paid good money for it. Ah well, looks like XP is still king for now. I just need to find a good price for XP 64bit.
