Windows 7 Build 6936 Screenshots IS HERE !


Recommended Posts

If there was a 2000 x64 I'd still be using it.

I hear ya.. finally upgraded to Vista after procrastinating, dual booting, tweaking and so on. The performance is at a level that I like now, and XP is just an OS that I used in the past and enjoyed, much like when I used Windows 98 and loved it.

I think Win7 will be more than just a new taskbar. Sure that's the main focus now, but I expect other new and cool features as well.
I don't know why you would want to use IE anyways. Firefox is where it's at.

LMAO where did that come from Nomad? haha

MY bad, quoted the wrong person. I was referring to the discussion about tabbed browsing in IE. IE is at the bottom of my list of browsers I would use.

1. Firefox

2. Chrome

3. Opera

4. Safari

99. IE

I'm more interested in what your 5 through 98 would be...

LOL, quoted for truth.

@Nomad77: If you were really serious... other than those five browsers, the rest are just Gecko, Trident, or KHTML (Konqueror) shells. And honestly IE8 beta 2's a worthy contender in the browser wars, get with the times.

@ikonizer: What would "impress" you? Just to save you from the inevitable flaming please do not mention the word "WinFS" or link the two words "new" and "kernel" together. :p

I know Windows 7 is just in alpha release at the moment, but from what I've seen so far, I'm not in the least bit impressed. I'm even considering downgrading from Vista back to XP.

and why are you not impressed and why would ya downgrade to an outdated OS What do you like to pay good money for hardware and not take advantage of what it can do. unless you seriously have some bad eyes and assume vista not working right for you then go back to XP

OMG! People liking and using Windows 2000 should be banned from the Internet and confined to Intranets only!

Don't see why. Maybe it's just because you're very uninformed.

And a horse to get to work, and candles, and a black and white tv. Move on already.

Explain to me the massive difference between 2000 and XP that can make you compare them as if one was a horse and the other a modern car.

I've never used Windows 2000, but from what I've read, a lot of popular consumer software didn't always run on Windows 2000, and Windows 2000 also lacked a lot of media software that was on the 9x releases like 98 and ME. XP was the first consumer-oriented NT release, which supposedly added a lot of compatibility that the NT line was missing.

Again, I could be totally wrong here, especially seeing as I do know many people who used Windows 2000 with little issue.

+RM20010: Are you seriously going to tell me that IE8 is a contender against Firefox 3.1???

If IE8 is the times then I don't want to get anywhere near them.

IE8 isn't even done and I still prefer it to Firefox. I was never a fan of the Firefox UI, though it is a good, reliable browser. But IE's features like crash recovery, activities, great zoom / high DPI features, and protected mode are all a big deal to me.

Strange, Ive asked a few people who've used it an the same happens to them. It will only display maybe 2-5 results, the rest only show after a couple of page refreshes. It doesnt happen with every search but it is frequent and it happens on XP, Vista and Windows 7.

Is that an animated fish on the desktop?

I know you can already animated the desktop in Visa by typing something like following on the command-promt.

aurora.scr /p65552

hey nifty little trick man...I guess my old butt learns something new everyday :D

do they even make konquerer and the other linux browsers for windows? :o

Since I much don't care or use addons any plus to using FF over IE8 is lost on me. I've been running IE8 since beta 1 and it's been doing good for something that's not finished. I also run IEPro for Ad block, and I'm set. My pages render and work fine, so I don't see the need to change. Before this I used Opera, and still have it installed for the heck of it.

But I don't know why browsers came into this anyways, we're talking about Win7.

    • Given only Volume license customers and specific resellers can obtain the LTSC versions legitimately it seems likely that this has been tinkered with quite a lot!
    • Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Memory and chip shortages have led to significant price increases for electronics over the past year, and it seems that more hikes are on the way for upcoming smartphones and computers. Apple CEO Tim Cook has confirmed that the company is planning to increase the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cook confirmed the looming price hikes for Apple’s future products, adding that “Unfortunately, price increases are unavoidable.” He also said the company is doing its best to “mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we’ve been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable.” The Apple CEO also noted that the allocation of a large portion of memory chips to AI companies has contributed to shortages in the market, resulting in lower supply at a time when demand for devices remains high. “We definitely need memory pricing and supply to return to reasonable levels for consumer products. That’s the bottom line,” Cook said. Cook also added that Apple is ready to use its vast cash reserves to help boost supply in the market because additional production capacity is needed. While he declined to specify how Apple plans to do that, he said the company will not build its own memory and storage factories despite its financial resources and silicon expertise. Cook did not provide further details on the scale of the price increases or which Apple products would be affected, though iPads and Macs could see higher prices sooner than other products. Apple’s next product launch event is scheduled for September, when the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone. It remains unclear whether the upcoming iPhones will be affected by the price increases, but given the current memory shortage, higher prices seem increasingly likely. There is currently no clear timeline for the end of the memory shortage. Samsung, one of the world’s three largest memory chip manufacturers, recently said the shortage could persist for several more years.
    • Downloads does not equal actual usage, even less when the app is pre-installed in some Galaxy phones.
    • +1000 to this, don't understand why they added that margin around the top bar, even the close button is a PITA to click without aiming. Ofc, this is just preview and hopefully they will revert such odd UX decision before hitting final version.
