    I know some of you may already have one of the RC versions Microsoft released, but when the final product comes out, will you be getting it?

    Will you get the Ultimate version? I plan to. I have high expectations for it.

    No,

    Probably no, at least not until it has been out for 8 or more months.

    Macs are for children, old ladies, and hippies.

    Till it matures, till a service pack or two are released. Till drivers don't behave like 13 year olds, not that all 13 year olds behave bad :D

    I will wait it out a few months after the initial release to consumers to see what the reaction is and to allow major issues to be sorted out. Need to check that all my programs will work ok with it too.
