I have a spare hard drive for my laptop so i decided to give it a try.
I have to say i came away very impressed. The install was totally painless. I have a lenovo R61i and it found everything other then the Fingerprint swiper.
I am especially impressed with IE8 Beta. it flies. I have Firefox 3 and IE 8 installed and IE seems to blow it away.
So far on this laptop I have used XP, Vista, 7, Ubuntu, Fedora, and red hat.
I cant believe i am saying this, but so far... 7 is the best yet....
Its only beta so i wouldnt install it on a PC you depend on. And if your not somewhat experienced with computers, i would say wait till it is oficially released.
But for those who are bored and going nuts being stuck inside and need something to do, give it a shot .
