Default Are you going to switch to Windows 7?
When Windows 7 comes out are you going to switch.

I'm just going to stay with Vista, unless I can upgrade for free or cheap.

I'm going to buy an SSD/Windows 7 combo, so yes, I'm switching 1 of my computers only. I want to try out TRIM with my SSD and see what I think. If it weren't for buying an SSD, I'd probably just sit with XP until DX10 meant more.

Hell yes. I paid £120 to 'upgrade' to vista 11 months after it was released. I've pre-ordered 7. I use the RC every day on my work laptop. I love it.

7 is to Vista what XP was to ME

I have TechNet so I already have it but I wouldn't if I had to pay for it. I don't lose anything by staying with Vista.
