I know many of you already have latest MBP like 2010 or 2011 but I don't know anyone with 2007 MBP issues with Lion OSX? I am thinking about ordering Lion next month after Apple fixed all 10.7 bugs with 10.7.1 update.

The 10.7.1 update has been out for some time now. It's foolish to think that all bugs will be fixed with any update, so if you need a computer now, buy it now.I know many of you already have latest MBP like 2010 or 2011 but I don't know anyone with 2007 MBP issues with Lion OSX?

I run Lion on a 2007 MacBook (not the Pro, so MBP should be better)
The only minor problem I have is with Safari, it eats up all my RAM, meaning I need to restart it after a few hours
Apart from that it runs swell as SL did
Did you do an upgrade, or fresh installation? I'm running a late 2007 macbook (the santa rosa revision), and it definitely runs a little bit hotter under lion. For most tasks speed & responsiveness are basically unchanged in my experience - except for scrolling, particularly in safari.
In addition to the RAM hogging, I also find scrolling in safari is not nearly as smooth compared to older safari versions on SL. I wonder whether this is due to the method apple uses to hardware-accelerate scrolling, as turning off acceleration for the whole OS X UI in Quartz Debug gives much smoother scrolling. I don't think it's an issue of graphics horsepower either - at least on 10.7.0, all the macs at my local apple store suffered from less than silky smooth scrolling, even a mac pro with a fairly powerful graphics card. Will have to go back and check at some point to see if 10.7.1/2 improves things...
