Windows 7 Files/Folders and icons?

I have Windows XP but looking to buy a new computer which has Windows 7.

I am wondering if the files and folders arranged in the same way on Windows 7.

Would it be a smooth transition to copy/paste all my files from XP format into W7?

I notice the the icons on W7 are quite big, is it like that when browsing the net too or just on the desktop view.

Thanks

Update:

Ps - Does W7 recognise most software applications, i use one religously which creates mpgs they automatically go into my videos on XP, will it work with W7?

    Many files and folders are arranged the same way; many are not. Microsoft has an easy transfer utility to help.

    Icons are mainly the same size and depend on the monitor and display adapter.
