#7 is not quite correct. XP mode is available in Professional as well.
#7 is not correct. XP mode is available in W7 Professional as well.
Guy = idiot
The Menu bar is no longer visible in Windows 7 (might have been the same with Vista - I was able to successfully avoid it altogether).
However, pressing the ALT key will display the File/Edit/View/Tools/Help menu-bar (same as it ever was).
For XP Mode, you only need Professional.
You only need Windows 7 Pro for XP Mode.
1) The Menu bar is no longer visible in Windows 7 (might have been the same with Vista - I was able to successfully avoid it altogether).

2) Something about the Application Wizard that everyone should know: Add/Remove programs is now "Applications and Features" - and it can be accessed via run => appwiz.cpl -- When the Explorer.exe is in affliction and does not load, you may still access the Application Wizard via Task Manager to uninstall problematic applications or patches.
Wow, what a bad article. No effort at all...
1. right-click taskbar>properties> check "use small icons" and change Taskbar Buttons pull-down menu to "never combine" or "combine when full"
3. in context menu on upper right-hand corner of control panel window, change "category" to "small icons" or "large icons". This organizes this much better. printers are under "devices and printer" (which is also on the start menu).
4. with control panel not set to category view, add/remove programs is "programs and features"
While not necessarily in the Vista core OS, Microsoft Steady State / PC Safeguard software is totally stripped from Windows 7 since the release candidates, which has a lot of PC administrators up in arms.

No for that you need professional or ultimate, the power options still existing but you need to enter to mobility center, the power options for w7 are much better than the options for windows vi.
for windows xp mode you need professional or ultimate, the power options still existing but you need to enter to mobility center, the power options for w7 are much better than the options for windows vi.
I'm confused as to why M$ removed DreamScenes/DreamScapes as that was one of the "ooh-ahh-factor" things M$ touted before Vista came out. Maybe M$ screwed StarDock Corp (and the others working on DreamS for M$) like they have with so many partners.
Outlook Express is replaced by Windows Mail in Vista as well.
I don't know anyone who needs XP emulation a lot of the readers here have found their games and apps work just fine on Windows 7 and if it doesn't you can Google for a work around. If it's an old piece of hardware that won't work under Windows 7 then it's most likely some cheap piece of junk made a company that ceased trading when the .com bubble burst, if that's the case don't be cheap skate and get it replaced!
For the record you don't need Windows 7 Ultimate for XP emulation you need Windows 7 Professional which is a lot cheaper.
A normal user wouldn't miss much of this.
1. Never used it, don't miss it.
2. You have to be kidding me right? Seriously? The "glowing" effect? ...
3. In Control Panel, change "View by:" to Large icons. I never liked that category view in XP and Vista, nor 7.
4. Agreed.
5. Agreed.
6. Normal people use Outlook (you know, Office Outlook).
7. Correction, you need at least Windows 7 Professional to have XP Mode.
8. Blah.
9. ...
THEY TOOK AWAY MY FREAKING MEDIA PLAYER TOOL BAR!
That's one of the main reasons I've stuck with media player and its quirks. Now that it's gone? I'm not a happy camper.
Interesting list. Just so you know, XP Mode is available in Win 7 Professional + Ultimate. Cheers.
For example, some XP users get excited by the prospect of Windows 7 offering XP emulation, only for their hopes dashed because Windows Home Premium does not support XP Mode, for that they need Ultimate.
Interesting article. Just a minor correction, XP mode is also available on Win7 Professional.
