Do it if you have the curiosity factor. I wouldn t suggest it if you require something dependable. The best situation would be to have more than one computer setup...one being your Windows 7 setup, and the other being your day-to-day usage computer. I guess use the formulas below: quot;I like to experiment with new technology and I have the experience to troubleshoot/diagnose/fix computer releated issuesquot; - Go with Windows 7, but have a backup system in place quot;I m not all to familiar with computer stuff but I like to keep on the cutting edgequot; - Stick with your current setup quot;I like new technology and have experience with computers enough to troubleshoot/diagnose/fix computer related issues. I enjoy problem solving and love testing new and exciting technologies so I can post to all my peers about what I findquot; - Make up your own damn mind

do you understand what Beta means?? windows 7 beta is not meant to be used as a standard everyday operating system. It is meant to only be used as a test system. Microsoft makes it very clear...if you read the documentation that you get when you download W7 Beta that it should be installed on a spare unit that you can have crash and basically afford to have screwed up more then not.

No, only use to test. It deactivates in August, then you will be stuck. I suggest hanging on to what you have until the full version comes out next year.

Nobody can answer your question because nobody has seen the RTM version of Windows 7. But personally I m mending my XP with duct tape so it holds together until Windows 7 and I can avoid Vista entirely.
