I have a pukka Vista licence - and I'm finding Windows 7 RC superb (dual boot) - but getting a bit fed up with booting into W7 to play games (better performance- especially in Arma 2)

any security issues with running the RC as a day to day OS ?

I don't run any criticial data or work data on my home PC its used mainly for family web browsing and gaming - but was concerned that Windows 7 may be - as its in RC status at the moment less secure from hacking etc

just wondering if anyone else had jumped ship from Vista and now using the RC as their main OS

cheers, Mark.
 
thanks to all for your positive comments re W7 - think I will sawp it to my main OS - just seems a waste of a pukka Vista licence lol

re S3 sleep etc - DON'T do what I did and take PC apart whillst in S3 sleep (I think it was that mode) - and then accidently move 2 HDDs to different SATA ports !

trashed one drive (recoverable to some extent)
