1. six to nine months of extra waiting.

2. a large investment in Adobe fonts (which *won't* automatically be
   scalable under 7.0).  For anyone who has any kind of significant
   Adobe type library already, the ATM is a steal, and means they
   don't have to repurchase all their fonts in Apple format.  Going from
   Adobe Version 1 to 2 a while back was bad enough :-)...
