I have a toshiba m200 tablet pc which has a 32MB GForce fx5200go seven runs with windows very well, so the windows basic, much better than for most, to use the AERO over a window it starts flashing the screen and sometimes only the screen and you must restart the laptop to return to work, someone has the idea that is?

One thing I would like to see implemented in the final Windows 7 RTM is a more advanced "open with" tool, I inadvetently selected some executables as recommended programs to open certain filetypes and I cant easily delete these from my right click "open with" menu.

At this late stage if it cant make RTM I would hope it could be included in an update.

Of course maybe theres a way to get rid of these unwanted suggestions - I just dont know it?

I wish we could have Maximize in Jumplists instead of Shift+Right click. That would be really handy. Like this: rapidshare.com/.../Maximize_Jump_List.png.html

So far I am happy with Windows 7.

As a whole it is working well.

The only thing that is not right is the empty menu (All other programs). It is a small problem, that does not affect my usage.

Hi lollht... yes Nick White did a great job running these blogs, at a time when Vista was getting a lot of bad press, some justified, but much of it just people picking on Microsoft because well they're Microsoft!

Hopefully Nick will be glad to see the results of the hard work he started and Brandon has continued pay off, he helped lay the foundation for an open dialog between Microsoft and its customers. This in turn has lead to Windows 7, a great product that took the feedback of average users, tech experts + alot of hard work at Microsoft to bring to fruition.

Seem like Nick is still innovating in the social media arena over at BuzzCorps

I'm using the RC version of Window 7 on my Macbook Pro. I must say it works great. I haven't been a fan of Windows since Vista came out. But this Operating system is a must have.

Forgot to add: The beta was never really open and incorporating feedback. The OS was done before public beta.

That's because:

1. Almost all reviewers say what others are saying, no one has the nerve to go against the unanimity.

2. None of the reviews really has an opinion of his own. Especially when all of them are strong fanboys.

3. Vista was so bad that Windows 7 shines in comparison. XP is getting old although it still beats Windows 7, even Windows 2000 beats Windows 7 in terms of UI and usability.

4. Few ppl really know the total ins and outs of Windows, especially all areas of functionality built by various teams.

5. No one reviewer has even done a comprehensive review covering Windows 7...comprehensive like how the Wikipedia articles cover Windows Vista. Everyone is just bothered about the new features, not fixing the mess that Vista created.

6. Everyone's idea of quality is pretty sub-standard. The bar has been set pretty low although Microsoft continues to say "Highest quality release every shipped".

7. None of the reviewers are really bothered about removed features.

8. Stability, features and performance are certainly great, compatibility is acceptable but usability is really really poor.

9. Microsoft is successful in putting a positive spin by disclosing only ready-to-ship features and showcasing the engineering efforts.

10. This post will be ridiculed, made fun of, quickly erased, modded down or attacked by every possible commenter.
