Windows 7 is on the horizon and I was wondering how it will work with FSX? Anybody researched this yet?

I haven't researched it, I have first hand experience, and it looks the same, but performance is a tad better

I concur with Weston. I use it and it does appear to have better performance. FS9 seems to have worse performance but it seems related to AS6.

Nathan, I'm once again going to make a confident conclusion that your FS9 is slower because you didn't do a clean install lol. My FS9 runs a little bit faster, but the main things I see running faster is like Windows Explorer (no, not IE) stuff, and applications. Farcry 2 and Call of Duty 5 get a few more frames, but its nothing noticeable over Vista.

I am using it for FSX and it works quite well, in my opinion.

I agree with Nathan. FSX runs better than it ever did in XP. FS9, not so much. I gave up and reverted to XP for that.
