Put yourself in the FD's position: what financial benefit to the company derives from migrating 'x' workstations to W7? None? Increased cost, you say? End-user training? OK, well, what technical benefit might there be? Debatable, but I'd say that the overwhelming majority of corporate XP installations work just fine, thank you very much. That situation also neatly sidesteps the "out of support" dilemma. Are there any 64-bit mainstream apps you want to run? Hold up the fingers of one hand and count them. Don't get me wrong: I like to keep up with technology (that's why I run to the expense of an MSDN subscription) but the figures simply don't yet add up for most companies.
