Why do you think Win7 is any different?

It has the same security model as Vista.

It has the same driver model as Vista.

Vista RTM had challenges. Modern Vista really doesn't.

Win7 may be marginally faster than Vista (I see a slightly snappier GUI - but I 
don't see any compute intensive tasks getting done any more quickly); and the 
graphics are prettier.

But it's more like Vista SP3 than the difference between Win3 and Win95; which 
is what I get the impression that most people are expecting.

More than ¾ of my applications aren’t supported with Vista by there vendors, on 
top of UAC and all the prompting, major reason why we sticking to XP.

Honestly, I used Vista at home, and hated it, lack of drivers, application 
incompabilities, had to relax a boatload of permissions and security levels 
just to make some things work ok, or at all. It isn’t worth the pain.

I've never had any problems with Vista.  I'm curious, what specifically is 
Windows 7 addressing for you that was a bust in Vista?

 I'm sorry, but I don't think you read my message carefully enough.  :)

 That part was in the paragraph immediately following the one you
quoted.  :)
