More Windows 7 screenshots, video

Our buddies over in China have posted numerous new screenshots of the Windows 7 M1 build. A typical example:


As with the previous revelation, it's clear nothing major has changed from a UI/UX perspective in M1, when compared to Windows Vista. This is entirely in keeping with the way Windows has always been developed, of course.

Programs Explorer? Are they copying Program Manager (Win 3.x), or the Finder (Mac OS)? :P I keed, I keed.

Looks pretty sweet to me, you know, that average user guy with a lot of opinions. Can't wait to use it!

Looking through some of this, it almost seems to open the question whether some of this could just be Vista with some 3rd party programs to do the customizations and whatnot. Still, the program explorer concept/thing seems like something building on the whole Games Explorer, but who knows. One of the things I would think we're going to see is less extra windows for settings, like the Display Options coming up like Wallpapers, in explorer and not some other window, but one can hope since right now the experience is kind of klunky with hit and miss intergration.

"Vista...just cant get no love." don't expect much from eweek - the "Microsoft guy" (Joe Wilcox), is a Mac fan....some objectivity there....

This is true. No matter what the story of the day is, you can count on Wilcox to report with some sort of negative opinion towards anything Microsoft. This isn't to say that he never has anything good to day about the company, its just that he always has at least one negative remark about any move they make.
