About the new computer: I don't know about you, but on my side, software is sooo expensive it makes hardware look cheap. So I upgrade my hardware every 9-12 month any ways, just to keep the software performing at it's peak. And I'm using both D7 and D2006 on a regular basis (not D2005).
About the shipping time: I'm sure it will ship in 2007, but I'd personally rather have an better D2007 shipping in 2008.
