What machine are you using it on? On my IIfx it seems to be a lot faster than
6.0.7. (Norton SI on SoftPC indicates an increase of 2.5%).
But that's probably just because all those neat new features hit exactly my
needs and therefore increase my productivity.

Well done, Apple. But please rethink your distribution policy. If anyone
can get 7.0 from dealer, why is there no way for the experts to get it from
their friends legally? Anyone who wants to steal it will get it anyway.
