I switched for home use back in 2000, I have three including a notebook now, and the original one still runs fine as well. At the office, I switched 100% a little over a year ago. I still have to administer the old Windows network. But trying to deal with switching old legacy systems to W7 is proving very expensive, not to mention costly.
It certainly does depend on what you rely on for software. But I don;t miss the registry corruptions, performance degradation, OS reinstalls, etc.. This all costs time and money. We are seriously thinking of just sticking with XP for the project, or ditching what we have to avoid costly license changes and system recoding.
Most people in offices could easily get away with simple machine. I can connect to any Windows network faster and easier from my Mac, strangely enough. I'm pretty sick of working on and around computers, which I have done for almost thirty years.
