I would check this page -
I would check this page - http://www.symantec.com/business/support/all_products.jsp
Then click on your product and you should see a link somewhere regarding compatibility lists. I clicked on a few and saw the links just to check. Symantec (for NetBackup at least) is pretty good about updating their compatibility lists.
EV client support
I just checked the link above, and it was expected that Windows 7 would be supported with the 8.0 SP3 client, but there is nothing in the compatibility list that even mentions Windows 7 or Exchange 2010 for that matter, yeah or nay. that's with the Nov 5th, 2009 compatibility list. I've got a few clients chomping at the bit for E2010, and Windows 7 testing is getting well underway...
I thought there was a road map somewhere in this site but can't seem to find it anywhere.
