My nephew in MS is on the Windows 7 team, and it definitely sounds like a Vista-based OS.  Vista was really new code -- thus the problems.  Windows 7 sounds more like a cleaned up version, but it's also more than just a re-branding job.  It appears a lot of work went into the effort.  They certainly think it'll have fewer teething problems.
