Should I switch to Windows 7 for primary development? [closed]

Is it time to switch to Win7 for primary dev? I mostly deal with maven, eclipse, eclipse-derivatives, VMWare workstation, virtualbox, and other dev-centric tools. I'm wary to switch now, but I have msdn access to the RTM release, and I'm thinking of upgrading? What are your concerns for Windows 7? Have you switched yet? What are the pros and cons?

If you're developing in Vista, yes. If you're still using XP, stick with that until at least the first few months pass and they work out most of the potentially major unidentified issues with 7 (There's always some hidden surprises the first few months after a major OS release).
