I've had the pleasure of using a high-DPI display on Windows 7 for a while, now. There are some tricks that help significantly:
1. Calibrate ClearType to use as little color as possible (use the system magnifier to help); this way, when apps get scaled the text is just blurry rather than blurry with odd color-fringing.
2. For apps that are incompatible but suitably configurable, set their compatibility mode to disable HiDPI scaling and then set their font sizes (or default zoom) to be larger. This works well for Chrome and Skype, at least.
3. For those times when you momentarily have trouble, remember that the windows key and the plus key will zoom your whole desktop.
