Where I work we have brand new Media Servers for a 4 beamers video wall running on W7 - software vendor says it's the last "unobtrusive" windows that just does what it is told to do. Remote control is via whatever, but the servers are 7 and will stay so. VNC'ing into those is quite the time travel.
