I just finished having to correct several issues with new Win 7 systems
the easiest one was finding the well buried default security policy that turned the wi-fi system off after 15 minutes of non use. The old lady was complaining about having to keep turning it off and on to make the wi-fi work.

Finding Win 7 drivers for printers originally designed to work with XP - woops, sorry don't have them because MS changed the commands AGAIN. A client has a few thousand dollars of CD data files that don't work now as the new systems have Win 7 and they don't use the same commands as the Win 98 and Win 2000 the search programs on them were created for. And NO, the Win XP mode does NOT work with all Win 2000 and Win XP software. Awaiting HQ approval to install a VM to be able to use the CDs again, but have an old box on hand to use them at the moment.

Ayep, Win 7 JUST works, but only with Win 7 compatible software and hardware.
