    Hi again Canouna

    Thanks :)

    One more question.
    Can you make the taskbar transparent (like win7), so it has the same color as your desktop picture?
    Looks like it use the metro color now.

    No, even not in WMC so far, he told me recently.
    He expect/guess that they will get an update when the RC arrives.

    I understand it, no sarcasm. Let's walk it through:
    8220 - number of build, can vary depending on lab
    0 - subbuild, if they need to keep the buildnumber (like it was with windows 7 rtm: 7600.16384, then 7600.16385)
    WINMAIN - lab name
    12 - year
    01 - month
    27 - day
    19 - hour
    25 - minute
    X64 - architecture (wonder, what ARM tag would be like)
    FRE/CHK - checked or free-of-checks build (checked builds have debug points all over them and are usually slow)
    CLIENT - means build is not server
    EN - language (e.g. English)
    US - locale (e.g. United States, though i didn't see other english language packs)
    H - eighth letter of latin alphabet (windows 7 builds had G letter, vista's had F)
    B1 - milestone of development, can be M1-9, then B1-9, then RC, and, finally, RM (RTM)
    CCS_X64FRE_EN-US - see above
    DV5 - DVD5 image (not DVD9)

    Is it easy to shut down Canouna? Is there a shutdown button on the usertile or do you still need to go to charms, settings, power, shutdown? I had having to do all that.
