I am hoping that some of you out there are Beta Testers of Windows 7 and can answer this question for me.

I am running XP Pro on a Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop and XP Home on my Dell Inspiron 2200 Laptop.  

I checked out Vista and although I tried NOT to buy into the "bad rap" that seemed to get attached to Vista, I did find one feature I did NOT Like.  

I am the ONLY one who uses my computer.  Laptop and Desktop.  I absolutely DETEST having to type in a PASSWORD to get into my own computer.  At home, my computer is on 24/7 altough I turn it off every two or three days "just because".  Let it rest or ??? 

Anyway, question is will Windows 7 require that Password sign on like Vista?  IS there a way to disable it?

Does anyone know if there will be an upgradeable version from XP Home
 Premium and XP Pro straight to Windows 7 bypassing Vista?

Thank you everybody for your help.  These two lists, PC Build and PC Soft have saved me many a headache.
