I would be careful of what you write in the internet my friend!
I will think about it, what are the differences in 7000 to 7048? Any new features or just back end changes? Its mianly navigation and fixing the OS I am looking for, so I can learn to use it.
I ask about HL2DM as it runs on a old source engine, and has problems with vista and server commands crash it. (One min the server has 16/16 players, the next its 2/16 and 1 min later everyone is back joining and saying 'Damn you vista crash'.
I don't want to dual boot, as it means a slow boot time, just becomes a pain. I have my spare machine with vista so if anything does go wrong I can use that, and I have a fully working image of my vista install, as I try to reinstall it every year (But not this year, I was waiting for W7)
