I'm running it, It seems pretty stable. I have a problem with not being able to change the wallpaper but that's just a little quirk I guess. I haven't had any problems with compatability yet, everything installed fine so far. It also seems to be just a bit faster than XP Pro, but not by much.
hm maybe i'll give it atry

No real problems here, aside from the driver issues.
* My Marvell Yukon 88E8001 NIC fails to accept any driver given to it. Yes, I am using 64-bit drivers, and yes, only 64-bit drivers can be used in this OS
* No driver support for my Intel 536EP modem. I must have a modem installed otherwise connecting to the internet in that OS becomes a problem. (I am dialup, ya know. Or maybe you dont...)
This will probably be the only thing that haunts the XP64 beta until it's released as an RC. Of course, it's also a problem with the corporations who produce hardware dragging their feet when it comes to appropriate driver support.
