What do testing users of the Windows 7 BETA operating system think are advantages and disadvantages?

I have downloaded and will probably try the new Microsoft Windows 7 BETA operating system. First I would like to know what current users think. Are there known issues?

   For me, being a beta tester of Vista and 7, Windows 7 starts up significantly faster than what XP and Vista did on my laptop. Note that Windows 7 is far from perfect though. I still had to install my video drivers and sound drivers. As noted by other beta testers, it had an issue with MP3 music files and another issue with UAC and Gadgets. Also, there is an issue with GameGuard (it fails to load with or without UAC enabled) and online games. I tried to upgrade it from Windows XP but couldn’t. I did a fresh install instead. There is also a slight issue with the rendering of the Desktop with iTunes. I will find more if I have the time.

   Windows 7 is very fast, faster than Mac Leopard and Vista. Its also very stable and is much more organized than vista and xp.
