Couldn't even go back to my trusty Win2000 interface (which I'm using on my XP as well, only started to use XP when I found out I could do that).

Personally, I'd go to Win2003 before going to Win7.
Well, The interface does take a little getting used to, and I can sympathise with the UI shock. I was still running XP with the classic menu, with all regular programs on the quicklaunch.

Still Once I got past the initial usage issues, I rally fell in love with the quick searcg and the new taskbar icons. I especially love the way that windows now stack, without the complete mess the taskbar used to be when you have multiple Apps and windows open.

I would still suggest trying to use it for a couple of weeks, which is the usual time it takes to get a little used to a compleatly new UI.
