How long until you move to OS X?
I feel your pain. I did mine as a dual boot (from xp) which I guess might be a safer option? Took ages to sort the email though
This is similar to my own experience. Two attempts to "upgrade" have so far proved fruitless. Vista to Windows 7 on my new(ish) laptop never got to a stage where the things would work and get the latest updates. An XP to Windows 7 update has been a week in the making. The goal is to create a dual-boot configuration. Supposedly an easy job, I am still trying to get it to work. Even when Windows 7 t does manage to boot up, a minute or so into a session I get the dreaded "BSOD". Fortuntely, neither of these are my key PCs. And I created a complete backup of the laptop before diving in. I quickly went back to Vista on that. So much for the promise that moving to Windows 7 is easier than any earlier Windows upgrade.
