Its said that Windows 7 might be released as early as mid to late next year if it all goes well, from the screenshots of 7 iv seen already it doesnt look much different to Vista :?

That is funny, here is me seeing windows 7 leaks using the customisable interface so to look how ever you do the skin for it but all more likley fake. Only the kernel has solid foundation to even being remotely real so far (which it is)

Id link the thread with all the screenshots I posted but can not find it right now
im informed from a developer friend I was at uni with that Windows 7 at present has decoupled the interface from the kernel. One of his workmates has it at present, and he said even using the Aero interface its quicker than a scalded cat.
More then likley a version of it would be as standard but the rumour is you will have xp, old windows and vista templates with the ability to do more and possible it will launch with a new default interface ripping off OSX. IT is open, it has to be for legal reasons so they have done an interface template system so people will be making some cool visuals (they do anyway I know with software but this is as standard)
Would be not the first time they scrap features but it would be cool to finally properly customize, I mean just creating a new background image for your start bar would be cool.
