All components finally installed (Total of about 5 hours) over the last month or so.  Finally put some time into using XE7 Pro and so far I'm very impressed with the stability and speed.  I beat on it quite a bit today both with component tweaking and getting my fairly large project running in it from XE4 (400K lines of code excluding 3rd party) and not one crash or glitch.   I do have a glitch to solve in the middleware I'm using but so far so good!
