So last day I got around to installing Vista. The last 12 hours have convinced me that this is arguably the worst operating system ever made, and booting back into F17 was bliss. I have not tried Windows 7 very much (only really use Windows at all if Wine will not give me a smooth solution).
Reinstalling Grub with the F17 seems to be broken by the way...grub2-install throws an error. I did not record it unfortunately, but I am assuming it can be fixed. If nothing else, it is not problematic to use an earlier version for recovery unless you need Grub2.
