Is windows 7 stable enough to use or is it still recommended to get windows xp?
-
It's fine, but it depends on what you want to do. There is still some support issues with Win 7.

The only thing i can think of would probably be to run steam..

Will performance suffer with vmware/parallel with the specs that the mbps are at now for playing games?

Yes.. gaming performance will suffer a lot in vmware and parallel.
Windows 7 is perfectly stable on my testing comptuers, though I've never tested on a Mac through bootcamp. -
dunno.. i been using Vista Ultimate.. its no OSX, but its not as bad as its rep

I am running Windows 7 on my Mac since February. It is perfectly stable, the resource consumption is drastically improved over Vista ... but do not install it now, wait for Windows 7 RC which will be released at the beginning of May.
The only issue that I found till now was with the media keys and brightness keys (they don't work as it should). -
I've been running win 7 since the beta was released. Works great on my MBP. When RC 1 is released, will that be something that current beta users can update to via windows update?
-
In my humble opinion, you shouldn't touch it until it's closer to 'released'. Beta software can be dodgy and when it's an operating system who knows when it will do something strange. A release candidate (out in may?) might be pretty stable, so that could be a good one.

I have 4gb Ram and vista home premium runs flawlessly with it. Try vista and then when w7 gets released, switch to it. Simple like that.
-
Is there a way I can get my hands on a beta or the Win7 RC when it's released in May? I missed MS's "come get your beta" call back in.....Feb? Is there a way to get a hold of a copy of Win7 currently?
