There is a link on the page for a demo, but it is not yet active. I look forward to seeing some numbers showing the improvement between VPC 6 and 7. Hopefully, Microsoft has made some significant improvements.

Hopefully, Microsoft has made some significant improvements.
Do you know how dumb you sound when saying that? :D When has MS ever made significant improvements? :rolleyes:

Overall, it looks good. MS fixed a lot of the stupid things in v.6.
Speed 10-30% faster?
Not sure that is going to be enough, but I hope it is at least usable.
I generally try to avoid MS products, but this is one I really want, since the occasional windows-only utility drives me crazy.
I'll wait for the reviews. But I really hope MS has hit a home-run with VPC in terms of speed and being bug free.
Here's to hoping...
