| Anyone going to take the plunge on the public beta of Win7 when it comes out tomorrow? Anyone torrent the leak? Thoughts? |

So I got my grubby mitts on the Win7 Beta and installed it. In fact, it was up on MS's site for a while until they took it down. It's alright. The new start bar takes some getting used to but is an improvement over the old one overall. All the programs I've tried to run are fine and the ram usage is 5-10% less than what I have on Vista. I'm considering making it my primary OS, barring any serious problems.
One neato feature is that you can have your wallpapers run in rotation automatically, like a slideshow. 3rd party programs did this too but they sucked, frankly. |

You mean - while you're using it? Seems like it would be distracting. On every restart, maybe... |
You can set the interval all the way up to 24hrs. Kinda cool. |
