Don't forget about creative's sound drivers and such.

MS is doing the right thing. They showed Windows 7 to the world for a year. Gave people public testing (to get ppl excited) and now are doing major stability tests before release.

I heard wonderful things about Win7. So honestly its a good thing. About time MS got a kick in the shin about making shitty operating systems. If they bounce back, they are a good company, and I don't doubt they will. Apple can't ride the "cool" wave forever.
