All the people saying that the relationship stuff isn't needed... what are you guys thinking? Voldemort cannot love, it's the one thing Harry has over him and will somehow use to his advantage. To say the relationships aren't necessary is foolish. Ron and Hermione have obviously been destined to get together for quite sometime now. If you think about it, Ginny and Harry have too though. She's the perfect girl for Harry. Harry needs a girl that isn't afraid and can handle having a marked man as a boyfriend. It's a perfect match.

But Snape is a pretty powerful wizard and I think he could have taken the 3 and a half Death Eaters in the room. The half being Malfoy.

I just read this and thought there's no way this is right. Rowling rarely tells it like it is, there's always a twist. If Snape hadn't have killed Dumbledore, his cover would have been blown not only with the Death Eaters but with Voldemort as well. There is no way that Dumbledore was pleading for his life and that Snape is just pure evil. It's never that simple.
Keep in mind Slughorn was only stepping in for a year anyway. I doubt he will be hanging around Hogwarts again in book 7.
I also seriously doubt that book 7 will be released in 2006. Plan for 2007, if we're lucky. Rowling does not have a deadline and she will write/edit it until it's exactly how she wants it.
About the Horcruxes: It's not Harry and it's not Hogwarts. Far too obvious to be one. Rowling mentioned in a recent interview with two
true HP fans that another item that is a horcrux was mentioned in the book and that she hopes someone figures it out. Think of things specifically mentioned in this book and you'll have a better chance of guessing what the unknown horcrux is.
