I just got it on a new laptop.

The taskbar is annoying as hell because when you open 2 of the same program it layers them rather than laying them side by side.

Also, for some godforsaken reason it doesn't include Windows Movie Maker

I'm pretty sure you can download Movie Maker from the website, even thought its Vista it should work.

ALready complaints from the gaming world on Windows 7. Steam is having big time compatability problems, (you have to run Steam in XP mode). Anything pre-vista has to run in XP mode, and the people in UK I work for stated that our new game is not going to be Windows 7 compliant (they too have re-acted to the predicted problems ala Vista intro, and will not patch to Win 7 for at least 6 months.)
Combat Arms will not run on any Windows 7 computers, the online gaming servers are getting flooded with tech assist questions on this "trouble free system".

Source? The only compatibility issue I would assume is for 64bit.

Got a Steam news page on Windows 7, most games on Steam are having Win 7 issues, my employer sent me PM on thier concerns on Win 7 when I asked them about Win 7 and the project we are working on. And Nexon has a whole page on the attempted fixes on Win 7 issues within the Combat Arms servers. Thier anti hack program refuses to work in Win 7, you have to take the files out and reinstall a patch file manually, and then not 100% guarenteed it will work.

From what I read on the Steam news page is that they are fixing/have fixed most of the issues. I haven't found much on the Nexon problems though, just some problems with Win7 beta.
