7 Rocks !!!!

I just did an install ( W7Ult32Bit ) on a 4 year old Dell laptop and I did not have 1 issue !!!!! And we all know Dells are sometimes a pain in the @ss.

Hmmm, maybe 7 should come in a geek version. No GUI, only a command line. Like DOS, but in 2010.

You should read and research first, for an example, you can find a lot of interesting tutorials around here, like this one: Start Menu All Programs - Add or Delete Shortcuts
about librairies, you would like to have like 4 or more shortcuts hanging somewhere on desktop or start menu, or just one, that with one click will open for you your music, movies, documents or whatever? This kind of threads are getting boring, something is new, we are not used on it,and of course, it sucks, yea, yea...YOU made a mistake and delete thousands of files, not your OS you now, for everything else that is bothering you: Tutorials - Windows 7 Forums

Ive done PLENTY of research and Nope there is no way to put any shortcut I want in the start menu ABOVE the "All Programs" tab.

Nope none of my issues are covered in any tutorial. Thanks anyway for the advice.

Good Grief cant you people just admit that 7 is not perfect in every way?

I shouldnt say it, but as a techno freak,,, Windows 7 is for dummies. I guess thats the best sale for Microsoft. Damn I was such a MS company guy. Please give me XP Pro with Larger Memory Capability. I will pay for it!

I must be a dummie too then... man, Windows 7 is even a greater challenge with all the new technologies!

When you say shortcuts are you talking about program shortcuts or are you talking about folder or file shortcuts ?

Welcome to Classic Shell

I did read that a while back. I didnt want to try it then. I just gave it a go. I love it

I can put any File, Folder or Internet Shortcut in there, Woo HOO! Thank you very much for bringing it back to my attention. Thanks to Ivo for giving us an option that should have been inherent in Win 7. I am hoping that more people much smarter than I will help write programs to make Win 7 more functional.
