1. From what I've seen of Windows 7

And playing with it, Vista is going to disappear as fast as ME did.

2. I intend to simply skip Vista

and go directly from XP to 7.

4. "it won't completely uninstall—only the executable is actually removed"

The rest of it sticks around (such as dll files, "integrated" into to OS).

5. That still represents a major concession from microsoft

Better than what we have today.
