The guys over at Crunchgear came up with eighteen new screenshots of Windows 7 which later turned out to be concept renderings instead of screenshots of the latest Windows 7 build. This was pointed out by a Microsoft representative after posting those images on the website. Several of the features shown on the screenshots however resemble those that we have seen from Windows 7 Milestone 1 screenshots and videos and it is very likely that they will make their way into the final product.

Not sure if this is the oldest thread on the 7 board, but I'm guessing it's close.
The story from dmex's link is almost exactly a year old - it's funny reading lots of comments about how 7 is going to suck. (Maybe it would have if they left it as it was in May 2008.)
One year has gone by pretty fast.
Strange no one replied.
The top one looks very similar to KDE lol. I like the bottom one.
I remember that wheel thing, a type of launcher / dashboard. I wish they would have included that in 7. That could have been one of the coolest UI additions. Granted they have something similar by letting you pin programs to the taskbar, but the wheel is just cooler. :P
Also what's up with the graphs and bars in the taskbar? That looks cool!
I agree, Swarfega, about the bottom one. The way they have the folder contents almost seem 3D when they're just giving it a circle / rotational thing. That's neat.
The round thingy is available as a add-on for vista, not sure if it works in 7 but i thought it was.
Google a bit and you will find it.

Wiisper, what's it called?
