See I find the opposite is true for me. I don't have much experience with OS X but between ubuntu and Windows 7 I _much_ prefer Win7. I just can't stand how much screen space is eaten up by useless padding, menu bars, sidebars and panels, not to mention the overly large fonts. I realize that everything is customizable, but I don't have the patience. Windows 7 also seems faster and more responsive to me but responsiveness is largely subjective and situational.

To each their own I guess.

Yep, I get excited for all the Ubuntu releases but end up back on Windows a couple weeks later.

You can use virtual machines (e.g. Sun's VirtualBox) to make the transitions easier. You don't even need to reboot then.
