Just spent all my cash on new rig and am looking at using the RC candidate of win 7 i already have the disc and key and am aware that it is only a viable option until march 1st 2010, but on the windows website it reccomends not using it for your only rig, as i will be, i would like your thoughts on the matter please.:confused:
 
Been using it on my main since i built it a few months ago. Had no problems with it at all. Was dual booting with Xp at first but took xp off a couple last month as it was never used.
 
Installed it on my main computer after 7 years of XP on last computer, hasn't crashed once! Even the 64bit seem to have no problems with games etc. I pre-ordered windows 7 and just waiting for funds before money is taken around october when it is released!!
 
You will almost certainly be fine, the only caveat is you won't have a leg to stand on if it all comes crashing down around your ears because you have been warned. The software is still pre-release and therefore should be treated as such.

I've been using it for months on my main machine and have only had a few minor problems, nothing out of the normal for any OS. Just keep a backup of your stuff (which you should be doing anyway) and in the vast majority of cases you'll be fine.
