Powershell is builtin and Notice the searchbox xhanges for every window?

wow. i'd love to be able to test this out! only beta i've tested so far is windows advisor lol

it'll be interesting to see whether the GUI will change much over the coming year

I like the looks of it with the big icon's. It's an obvious attempt at making a better Vista but I can't help but to think that many of these improvments could have been done to Vista with updates. Lets hope they have improved the core architecture as well.

I wonder if new drivers will be needed for all hardware or if the Vista ones will work. This would greatly improve it's acceptance in the mainstream community.

I think the beta testing needs to be done on more computers and I wouldn't mind being one of them. New Op systems are so fun to play with. Would be fun putting it on a partition or it's own HDD and checking it out.

Windows 7 will be using the same driver architecture so all Vista supported drivers and programs will be compatible
