Hmm, I like to have as little applications on my PC as possible though.
XP mode is still an application. Two separate downloads in fact. Worked fine for me, but I've never really needed it. Even utilities work under 7 now...least all the respectable ones. Not much of a gamer though, myself, so I got steam working perfectly under 7, the few other games I ever play also work. For myself I have no use for XP anymore so "XP Mode" is no incentive, I find it kinda annoying that MS made it only work on the more expensive Win7 pro, when it would work fine on home premium...if they'd let it work. As a result I'd not pay their artificially instituted premium as a matter of principle, but that's just me and I'm a stubborn old dood.
