7 RC as main OS?

Hey guys,

Do you think using the RC of 7 is a good idea to use as my main OS? I have a genuine Vista and I could reinstall it any time I liked if I had to, but I dont wanna use it as my main OS only to find out in a few weeks that its gone to crap and I have to reinstall Vista. It would be easy enough to do but its not something I wanna do as I wont be making any backups.

Im using Vista 32 and 7 64 at the minute but im quickly running out of space and I cant find anymore stuff to delete so what do you think?

Thanks.

I've been running Win7 RC1 for my primary OS for quite some time. I've got a legit copy coming in Oct...so I will be changing out then....but even though I technically have a legit copy of Vista for this machine, I've chosen not to use it.

I've been using 7 since build 6801, all the time as my main OS, i have never had a problem with it :)

sure it's good enough. i've been using windows 7 for 8+ months and i'm lovin' it

Win 7 as only OS sine 7000

I have vista lic, but never went to vista. I hated it

Alright then thanks for all your replies.

Can I overwrite Vista with Seven without having to get rid of all of my programs? Keeping in mind my Vista is 32-bit and im hoping to install 7 64-bit.

Nope you can upgrade from vista 32 to win 7 32 but not to win 64. A clean install to win 7 is actually better even if it is a pain.
