Except that W7 is quite CLEARLY superior to Vista, and running it in a virtual machine might limit or even negate some of the performance improvements ...

I agree, W7 is quite stable, actually more stable than Vista.

You shouldn't install it on a system that is already OC'd or you may run into troubles with it running correctly, but that is true with any OS

The earlier versions of I.E. 8 that came with the Beta versions of W7 was horrible, but other than that W7 is very nice.
