You can see evidence of this since the sidebar is now gone. Gadgets can act independent of this artificial side zone.

Hopefully we’ll see other items changed like this including more consistent UI menus, easier navigation of the start menu, etc…

One thing is certain, what we see here is not what we’ll get next year.

Honestly, I don’t know why MS is release milestone builds this early. Not much has changed.

The last feature to be updated is the interface, which makes plenty of sense when you think about it. Whats the purpose of revamping the interface if you're failing to work on the problems its predecessor (Vista) faced!? <br/><br/>I'm just looking forward to testing this build if and when it ever leaks on the Internet lol. ziggy, you have to keep in mind that this is a pre-beta build. the real “goodies” are “under the hood” so-to-speak.
