vista upgrade

Anyone had any issues upgrading from windows vista to windows 7?

Fed up with Vista being unable to load things and how slow it is.

Any advice appreciated.

Re: Cairn of Claise from Tyndrum (9 days)

What can I say? Thanks for all compliments! It's giving something back for all good, fun reports I read here. But let's add some silliness to the seriousness with the pic below.
