I have the Windows 7 RC running on a 2.53ghz Macbook Pro with 4gbs of ram and an Nvidia 9600m GT with 512vram.

I have absolutely no problem running Zero Hour at max settings and max players on a large map, and can run up to four player matches in Shockwave with everything set to max. At 5 players and above the game turns into a slideshow, even if I set everything to lowest. The computer I have can run Red Alert 3 at high/ultra high settings (proof), and my old HP laptop using XP can run Shockwave flawlessly. I have downloaded Zero Hour 1.04 patch, Nvidia drivers from their site, and installed essential updates from Windows Updater.

Is there any possibility that Windows 7 is causing the slow down?

(before anyone gets me for trying to game on a mac laptop, I only bought one because I got a discount of over $1000)
