Windows 7 has so much potential now. Makes Vista look like moldy cheese lol. I'm like getting so hyped for Windows 7 right now.

Just got home from work and I'm downloading it right now! This is impressive.
Downloading @ 1.5-2.0 MB/s.
Yahoo M$, way to have the bandwidth available.

Sorry to say, but it is on your end this time. With as many people that have reported great speeds all across the world, i find it highly unlikely that they are having issues.

If you have 64bit hardware, run 64bit. I'm running it right now, and I haven't found anything that hasn't worked yet. I run Vista x64 as well; runs fine.

I have a P4. My machine is just about 5 years old going on 6 now. I dont have a current CPU.
Yes you will have to partition if you wish to install along with your XP install.
Yes this expires June 2010 but starting in May 2010 it will restart itself every 2 hours.
