Not another thread.

Have you seen Vista yourself?

No, it's not.

The latest builds of W7 aren't Aero enabled.

Looks pretty fake to me.

Looks pretty fake to me.

Yeah, that is simply vista with the taskbar arrow button styled differently :)

You mean Win7 should look like linux or sth?

The man who has installed Win7 said his M1 Version is 6519.1.071220-1525

It still looks like using Vista,

I don't wanna translate the article to english coz my poor english..

Those screens are real. Don't believe me if you want but they are. There are virtually no visual differences in 7 over vista at this point, and the sidebar in 7 DOES look like that from what I've seen (don't have the build but I've seen enough to know those screenshots are real).

Very fake. Not even a good try...

[depot]

If it's fake i'm sorry about that . I just want to share Sth.. :laugh:

[testman]

Of course it looks like Vista!

The interface won't be changed significantly till years later. It was the same with XP when they built it from 2000. It's called development.

Fake. Look at the build # and then look at the compile date: 071220. If that was done by Microsoft it would have read 122007. Whomever created that screenshot lives outside the US.

The latest builds of W7 aren't Aero enabled.

Source? Why would they have disabled Aero if it the Vista SP1 code base is being used?

I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just looking to be educated here :)

this could probably be Windows7 but i doubt that ms would start out with making aother arrow and another feedback icon lol

[NienorGT]

The first longhorn shots where looking alike to XP. But I don't know, wasn't Blackcomb/Vienna/Seven should be totally different from Vista?

[Express]

I think its genuine. Thanks for the look.

[iconboy]

ok im not trying to troll here, but the start menu/button has been there since windows 95, right? what do you guys think should they try something new? what else could they do!?

It probably will have a different look than Vista, but no visual changes will come until after M2. At least that's the way Longhorn was. They changed the look to Plex (or whatever the hell that ugly UI was called), but I doubt they'll even consider working like that again.

I remember reading somewhere that since they started dev of win7 last year that they wouldn't have used SP1's codebase since it didn't exist yet in a reliable form.

[Pharos]

I wonder what's all the fuss about trying to get an early screenshot. Do you realize this is 7's FIRST MILESTONE? It will NEVER look like the finished product :no:

See, thing is, people say they want something different, but as soon as MS changes something as drastic as that, they're going to end up in the middle of a s**tstorm because people don't actually want change.

It's really too bad.

Could be real, the sidebar is missing those plus buttons and next buttons which coincide with a post saying that gadgets have be integrated in explorer.

Win7 does have Aero, the post here saying there was no Aero in his test was due to him being unable to load proper drivers as he stated in his mini review that Neobond saved.

Look at the search bars, it also confirms what people are saying, "search display" or "search all control panel"

this specific window searching was also mentioned on istartedsomething

This is interesting to say the least.

I hope they go back to the standard folder view of Win2k/XP. My girlfriend's laptop has Vista on it and it is a headache to use. If you can change everything to a legacy-look [like having a tree on the left side by default], let me know. Its horrible. If they don't make the next version more friendly, I'll be staying with XP even longer.

[williamhook]

Faaaaaake. Looks exactly like Vista.

[Colin-uk Veteran]

twas a bit pointless taking a screenshot if its just gunna be something that looks like vista.

I mean its not exactly showing anything new :p

edit: those other shots look interesting :shifty:

Umm no, Microsoft build tags are in the following format:

Build number.YYMMDD-HHMM

Got it?

[spenser.d]

Faaaaaake. Looks exactly like Vista.

And what exactly were you expecting it to look like, Windows 95?
