Home Premium, 64x, on an AMD/ATI system. Absolutely 0 compatibility issues - running a rather complex setup here myself (with a lot of add-ons and external software for things like weather and ATC), and the game is rock-solid. Installing was not a problem and I've never really had crashes. Because Win 7 is good at dividing multi-core processor loads, I actually have a better experience with it, since on XP my game would sometimes get stuttery and force me to change CPU affinity to just one core, whereas here it never has issues dividing the workload. The result is a smooth experience.

You're definitely not screwed. I had a similar worry, but my migration went well. I'm also sticking to FS9 over FSX because yes, there is no way I'm buying that $700 worth of software again.
