With Vista the UAC function was either on or off... in 7 there is at least some adjustment.

(Assuming you installed Windows to C drive in a directory called "Windows" )

OR

Run>msconfig > select the tools tab > "Change UAC Settings"

My biggest issues with Vista previously related to it communicating with other things on our network - if often did bizarre things network wise... with 7 I have seen nothing like that at all - it seems to play far better in a larger environment than it's predecessor .
I am using it full time at the moment and I have not yet found an application that will not run smoothly on it. (many apps I use where written for far older versions of windows as well as some very recent apps.)

As for a cheap upgrade.... don't hold your breath, I am hearing rumors it won't be cheap.
