It might be advisable to run Win7 RC1 in a virtual machine (e.g. with FREE VirtualBox). So that if anything goes wrong you can simply chuck the whole virtual machine, complete with errors, irregularities and/or viruses, and create a new one.

Been running Win7 (64) a few days now and I'm not impressed. Windoze' non-intuitiveness has not improved one iota from where I sit, and to me Win7 is slow as molasses. But then I'm used to screaming fast OSX, of course. However, I hear XP and Vista users are pleased with the speed (I wasn't aware XP and Vista were that bad...).
Ah of course that was missing ... typical OSX fanboy blablabla ...
