I am sorry but your doomsaying completely flummoxes me.
After over 100 installs, what is experienced here is a flawless, effortless, almost weightless OS that is never less than instantaneous if it is set up right.
Last night I installed on a Dell C430, an older machine. The clean install took 20 minutes, after which every driver was in place while optional Updates handed us 4 new ones.
Installing AOL, Meebo, OFc, ITunes, MSE, CCleaner and Auslogics defraggers, wired and wireless printers, config'ing IE8, updating, cleaning and defragging afterwards all took about an hour.
The Dell runs perfectly, just another day with Win7.
