    Windows 7 is just Vista with a new taskbar. OMG, you don't realize how much I appreciate the old XP-style taskbar. Sucks major when you have to hover over a stacked/grouped app in 7 just to select the particular running instance. Ungrouped like in XP saves plenty of time. I would love to run Vista instead of 7 on my machine, except I don't have the license...

    Wow not sure if serious, that's a setting you can deactive in the Taskbar options :rolleyes:

    How? This is one of my two main gripes with 7. The other has to do with .NET running slow... But, that is another topic altogether...

    Invert selection is still there, should be under Edit (file menu), in W8 it's in the Ribbon.

    @Faikee Microsoft return start menu in Windows 8.1 Update 2 or Windows 8.2 ? Windows 9 is free for the latest update Windows 8.1 ? Idea ?
