Do you think that is a good idea or a bad idea? |
Jason, I head a rumor W7 will officially be coming out in June ( I guess they've pushed it forward as a result of the overwhelming positive feedback of ECs). |

i have 3 OS now in my PC. XP Pro SP3, Vista Ultimate 32bit and Win7 64bit  . So far, gaming on Win67 64 is ok, no problems at all.

@ TheInfiniteAmmo, you should definitely try Windows 7 RC! It's very stable and people seem to really like it.
I would recommend running the Beta of Win 7 Upgrade Advisor which is now available to help people analyze their PC in preparation for a Windows 7 upgrade: http://bit.ly/cjMOK
Let us know if you have any other questions, we're on Twitter @MSSpringboard tweeting all day.
Good luck!

I still haven't installed my RC copy. I can't seem to find a free partition software to use. Any suggestion?
@Ammo-- you can multi-boot, y'know  |

Im pretty sure you can download the XPM software that works with 7 to let you use XP in virtual enviroment. I think its just somewhere else on the Microsoft website
