Windows 7 Milestone 3 screenshots

[tSwitch]

they make it out to be a feature that they programmed.
everything is adapted from somewhere else.

I didn't see it as making it seem 'original' so much as
"this is new in Windows 7 [compared to it not existing in Vista]"

if they didn't try to make the features seem cool, useful, and important, it wouldn't sell.

it isn't the dock because the dock is a trademark by apple. (yes a legal trademark)

ok

EDIT: Not to defend Windows 7, but that guy is a complete moron if he thinks Microsoft is the first business to not take ideas from their competitors and use them in their own products. HURR MAC SHOULDN'T MAKE COMPUTERS THAT USE RAM BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T COME UP WITH THE IDEA OF RAM FIRST DURRRRRRR.

What are competing computers supposed to run on, Ginseng?

I like my joke better.

oh yeah, a few more things I forgot to add.

1) hurr durr the start button is on the task bar just like in every version of windows.  they just decided to make it smaller
2) the context menu on the media player isn't actually the same as the itunes one.  The Itunes one on the mac is showing playback options and program options, and is more of a standard 'right click' menu inside the windows program.  the context menu is actually showing library navigation tools, so it's less about "shuffle repeat off" and more about "load up X or Y playlist".  Not quite the same.

wow, what the hell?
one step forward and three steps back

[Holkeye]

Yeah, really. That says so much about so many things, I don't even know where to start.

[Irock]

Being able to change your wallpaper is a privilege.

[Polraudio]

Wow this sucks. Guess i will have to go with the best version when it comes out.

[Holkeye]

What I meant in my last post was about including "Virtual XP" in Windows 7. That says so much about Windows, and people in general. First off, it shows that people were/are highly likely to keep XP for yet another generation of WOS, and that Microsoft knows this. In turn, it also shows that they know that Vista was largely a flop. I'm struggling to come up with an analogy for the situation, but it's sort of like saying, "Buy XP again, and we'll throw in this shiny new bonus: Windows 7."
