It has gotten much better and I really like F7.
New laptop + live cd without installing anything:
a. No, but that's nothing that can be helped and usually an
    easy fix.
b. Haven't tried.
c. See above
d. Yes
e. Yes

Most stuff has gotten a lot easier.  Certainly wireless;
I do think NM is making big steps (even if it is still a
pain in some ways), and the chipset situation looks better
than it did last year.
