let me just add some more 'improvements' I have noticed in this Beta version.

Going from active to sleep or active to hibernate and back is tons faster.
That might be attributed to not having much installed.

I just found it alarming that I don't have to wait for much of a countdown to hibernate or restore.

Well finally a big ding for W7.

I know it is beta but still, you figure from XP to W7, you would get an improvement on battery life.

But on XP, I was getting over 3 hours on my extended battery of my Lenovo T61. With W7 the the system reads only 2:10h of battery life.

What a let down. Battery consumption is not suppose to get worse!
