Windows 7
So I've slapped it onto my laptop to see what it's like with the full aero stuff. It's pretty, just like Vista. Things are tricky to find, but probably better for somebody who's never used a computer.
I haven't been able to get it stable yet, it generally lasts for 10 minutes before blue screening and then never starting up again. Requiring a format before the setup program will even work again.
Currently I've lasted half an hour on this build, I think it's to do with SATA drivers. Time will tell.
The gadgets are better than the side bar, allowing you to put them wherever, and the snap windows thing is certainly a good idea.
I'm just doing my usual tweaks in the registry when I've found that the "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation" registry setting has a default option of 2. Now I thought 0 and 1 were the only options. Is this a Vista or 7 thing? I wonder how many other behind the scene changes there are...
