I think by "change is hard" he perhaps was suggesting that it takes awhile for the various hardware companies to put out bullet-proof drivers. I don't think he meant it was hard for the users to change to the new OS (aside from being frustrated that the drivers aren't available or don't work).

I'm runnin 64 bit with an AMD Athlon 64fx proc on an Asus A8NSLI moboard with 2 gigs of ram and dual nVidia 9600GT's and a couple 10k RPM Raptor drives in RAID array.

Just about a year ago I invested about $300 in the dual GPU's and it was like breathing new life back into a flatlined patient. The moboard and proc are like 4 or 5 years old now and I think I can run fine with em for at least another year!
