I used DreamWeaver too, until I discovered text editors with syntax highlighting.
At least DreamWeaver does not insert a lot of crap like Word and FrontPage do.

I can do everything in 7 what I can do in XP, and even more.
Some things are better hidden to make it less scary for the average user, but everything is there, and improved (things like System Restore and Network Setup really suck on XP).

You can often find things faster than in XP just by typing in the Start Menu.
But if you really want everything in one place, you can enable God Mode.

I do recommend Windows 7 for its much better security though. Always working under Admin mode in XP is dangerous, and having to use "Run As..." every time is cumbersome, as in XP, you will have to enter your password every time (same as Mac OS X/Linux). In Windows 7 it is just a click, proving its user-friendliness.

Windows XP will be supported until April 2014.

You also hear Trelior, who has become a pony too, having sex with Fluttershy.
That's not alright, Kiyo... Not cool at all. I would never do that. Not that kind of brony.
That's why I explicitly mentioned you became a pony as well. Ponies having sex with ponies is OK.
And I am not that kind of brony either. Sometimes I feel ashamed to call myself a brony for exactly that reason.

XP and Linux aren't comparable. Linux' user system is so much more convenient, if you try to do something you don't have permission for, it will pop up a convenient password dialog and you can continue as normal, and even for the Terminal a single sudo command will get you into the admin realms. As opposed to XP which just gives you the finger with a "insufficient rights, go away".
There is a Run As command in XP if you right-click on an icon, which asks for a password, just like Linux and Mac.

And that is exactly where Windows 7's UAC comes in!
Programs can just ask for admin rights, you don't have to type the password every time, just a single click, which is secured so it can not be spoofed, is enough.
UAC got a bad name because it was badly implemented in Vista, and so far everyone I know who sticks to XP does not understand its importance and user-friendliness.
Why? Because the first user account on XP is always administrator, and people are used to that. This means every program runs with admin rights, making web browsers, download managers, and every other program that uses the web in some way, a convenient way for viruses to install themselves on your PC without anything to stop them.

Why is Linux (and Mac OS X for that matter) safer?
Because they are not used on enough computers to be a profitable target. This is changing for Macs though, the first Mac botnet has been around for a few years already.

the post-setup instructions can be skipped by shutting down the computer or going into Safe Mode beforehand, which leaves you with only the Administrator account.
I always tick "Skip OOBE" in nLite :P

My main point was UAC though, which you seemed to ignore...
XP-stickers are usually against it because they don't understand it; a simple click is really much more convenient than having to type your password every time, and much safer than working with admin rights all the time.
An alternative is to opt-out programs of admin rights with DropMyRights.
But XP still does not facilitate an option for programs to request admin rights themselves.

Admin has write access to the Windows folder.
But you may not change the Windows OS files there. This was already the case in XP, which has Windows File Protection as well.
Unless you hacked it out of XP, which is indeed a lot easier to do, as you don't need TrustedInstaller rights.
Ever seen Windows XP asking for its installation CD because system files got corrupted? You can trigger the scan manually by typing:
sfc /scannow

Windows File Protection isn't that bad, concept-wise, it does its job and you could still do your stuff. The problem is that it's too easy to circumvent, by deleting the sfc files itself it's rendered useless (since for some reason it cannot restore itself) and malicious software can do whatever it wants.
Not in 7, because of the TrustedInstaller rights, and WinSxS.
Also, a program needs to have system access first to do this. Which kind of involves being on the other side of Raymond Chen's airtight hatchway already. UAC will prevent this if you click No.

Also, for all the hex-edits you can do in XP are better alternatives.
RAID-hack: use hardware/host-raid, it's on nearly every motherboard.
Theme-hack: WindowBlinds, as wel as the other StarDock utilities.
TCP/IP-hack: File sharing software can cope with it for years now. Good thing because Windows Update keeps resetting it.
USB-polling frequency hack: only needed with some high-DPI wired (not wireless) gaming mice, which come with software to cope with it.
SFC hack: not needed if you are not going to do any hacks.

I never bothered to look for Windows 7 hacks as everything I want to adjust is in the registry anyway (not all parts of the registry in 7 are accessible for admin, but admin can grant himself access to them, hah :))

I still need only #41 of the original set, I heard it's a missile door.

I wish I had some Lililuck.
