why I prefer Windows 7 to Vista

The beta really impressed me with it's speedy boot-up time. The release candidate isn't quite as quick, but still an improvement over vista.

I love the following features:
* the preview that appears when hovering over task bar icons;
* the multi-pane view which shows a preview of each open tab when hovering over Internet Explorer;
* the snap to 2 column display;
* new media codecs, so that Media Player can handle the divx, xvid and vob formats "out of the box";
* ability to set up a wireless printer without a bulky CD installation of driver software;
* the new Libraries - which enable me to associate files from anywhere on the PC, with my Documents, Videos, Music and Pictures; this makes it a snap to switch back to Vista;
