Actually, you're right.

The only thing that I've found doesn't work with Windows 7 so far are Lenovo-specific utilities for my X200 laptop. I can't use the system update utility (but I can install most drivers manually), and the utility that stops the hard drive when the laptop moves (can't remember its name) also won't install -- the install tries to run but Windows brings up a warning that there is a known issue and that the program should not be installed... so I didn't install it.
 
I just ran a quick count. Am on Win 7, and have 75 apps installed. All work. A couple in XP compatibility mode.
 
I haven't gotten a version of UltraMon to work. Although I need it a lot less in Windows 7 than previous versions.

UltraMon works fine with Win7 for me, on 3.0.7 Beta. Though the taskbar needs a little work in terms of mimicing the functionality of win7 taskbar
 
pretty much all mainstream programs that work on xp/vista has worked on 7 for me. the only thing different was me dling 64 bit versions.

Do you have Avira AntiVir installed?
I just did and it does manual scans alright but it wont update at all and I cant figure out why. Nothing is telling me that the program is blocked from the internet.

EDIT:
Omni Page doesnt work. Wont install. Gets to a certain point and freezes, then stops and rolls back the installation. Will have to wait for a Vista/Win7 compatible version.
