Hasta La Motion!

the time has dawned, when i am but forced to embrace the inevitable. im but forced to move to a os im not that happy with.. but want your views on it..

been using winxp64 for a long time without any cause for complaint, but now must migrate to Win7 because of this whole CS5 thingy and the addition of new hardware.

my primary production software would be Nuke and Aftereffect cs5 working with mostly DSLR and Sony XDCam footage (and an occasional film scan). Hardware on the compers station would be a i7 980x /16G memory/2BX4 raid 5/ 470GTX for mercury playback.

my questions are as follows

1) Do compers use Windows7. and if so, how successful is it…
2) In the inevitable situation of having to use Win7, are there any things i need to know about setting up win7 without running into complications mid project.
3)other useful information ??

thankx again..
