I was actually anticipating Windows 7, unlike most other pre-release versions of Windows, Windows 2000 excluded. Hopefully, I’ll get that new DVD burner very soon.

The provided drivers on the Leopard disk installed with no hitch. Office 07, Firefox, and several other programs work fine.

I hate to say it, but it’s not that bad. They did some decent things with the UI (about time, really.)

I think the sound problem is a driver issue. With those two exceptions, it runs great.
