Hopefully you mean 7.0.1 rather than 7.1... remember that there never was a 6.1
or a 5.1... I can agree with hesitating, but I'm not sure I agree with waiting
for the second release of system 7 before upgrading.... I agree with what some
other people have said:  It's been in beta long enough that it should be pretty
stable, probably more so than 6.0.7, anyway.... In any case, we should be able
to tell whether this is true or not within the first couple of weeks after
release.

Gee, you have a short memory.  This will be at least the fourth major version
of the control panel since 1984.  Each of them has been significantly
different, but I don't think there has ever been a major amount of user
confusion.
