"Critical Bug" (Score 1)

The whole "critical bug" was only with a specific chipset, and specific chipset drivers from what I have read. Even then it wasn't sure-fire to happen. It is hardly a "showstopper" and is fixed with updated drivers. It is a bug, for sure. However it is hardly a critical bug with Windows 7. This can likely be fixed with a small patch to chkdsk, and issuing a driver update option (through Windows Update) once the new version has been certified. I fail to see what the big fuss was over. For those who haven't tried out Windows 7, you can still get the Release Candidate for free from Microsoft until August 20th: http://tinyurl.com/9agzvs . If you are anxious to get the final version of Windows 7 before the October 22nd release date, you can always sign up for MSDN or TechNet Plus (it was released to them yesterday, see here: http://tinyurl.com/mpgp4h ).
