Then again, I'm on Vista Ultimate rather than 7. 7 wasn't due out for like 2-3 months when I built this rig and I don't use an OS until its been out 6 months anyways and well, I wasn't about to wait 8 months. :P

This 100%, So many bugs and shit to work out plus getting reviews and peoples experiences before deciding.  :)

Yeah, I built my desktop in 2009, right before 7 came out, and used Vista for about the first 6 months, before switching to 7. But I've used this copy of 7 since then, with the bootloader, and this is the only time I've had that validation problem, so it's hardly a significant risk.

For what it's worth, 7 has been such a huge improvement over Vista (and right from the get go) that I can't imagine going back. And 8, outside of Metro, more or less improves on that. Haven't had stability or bug problems with either.

You should be sorry that you're still on the "zomg Vista is terrible" bandwagon from 2008. After a couple big updates to it Vista is just as good as 7 nowadays. I don't know why people are still under that same old trance.

I guess bad first impressions die hard, eh?
