Other cool things to try:

Win+Left and Win+Right hotkeys will snap a window to the screen edge.

Pressing Win+Right when a window is snapped to the right will move it to the next monitor in a multimon setup.

I think Win+Shift+Right will jump any window to the next monitor, etc.

Win+Up will maximize and Win+Down will restore.

Alt+P will show/hide the preview pane in Explorer.

It's good to see them finally making more use of the "Windows" keyboard key - this just keeps getting better & better...

Does anybody have a screenshot of PowerShell please?

Maybe I discovered something maybe I didn't, but who knows...

Open up a few MSN chatscreens or IE pages or something, but not maximized ones. Just windows. I then started dragging a window and I was wiggling with my mouse, and all the other Windows minimized so I had an empty desktop to place my window on. Hope you understand. Try it out! :)

Yes, there is a video demonstration of that located here.

The new rich Command Prompt is freaking brilliant. I hope Linux evolves to use something like this in the future! (Y)

For what it is worth, Linux (like all Unix/derivatives) have a solid and powerful shell foundation.

Not sure if your post was serious, or being a bit silly if you already were aware of the unix shells.

Nice! Looks very good and can't wait is this hoping to be released by next year or by end of this year or something? if so i will definaltly buy Win 7!

Not a very reliable source but it narrows things down ;) :

Release date: Expected between H2 2009 and January 2010; or on June 3,
Here's the command line version, there is also a graphical version.

You do know Windows PowerShell works on Vista too, right? This isn't JUST Windows 7.

PowerShell 2.0 from what i've seen has more going on for it than Bash and so on. I don't think he was trying to be silly, if it sounded that way to you is different though.

Can't believe I forgot this:

- In the volume mixer, you can see the noise each individual application is making, not just the total noise coming out the speakers.

eg. You could see if it was windows media player or winamp making noise just by looking at the volume mixer.

Vista has this feature already.

Wow, I haven't seen Windows getting this much hype for some time :)

Windows 7 seems just awesome... I'm just overwhelmed they did so much in a pre-beta build. Hopefully this will be that greatest version of Windows combining the technology of Vista with a new level of usability and interface.

i have noticed that ultimate extras such as dreamscene, texas holem, etc... are missing from 6801..wonder if they are dropping these or just revamping?

Ultimate extras is being dropped (so I've heard), not sure what they're going to do with things they released for vista though.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
