Good morning again my friends. A couple of days ago a newest build leaked to the web and it is available for download. I haven’t installed it my self but there seems to be a couple of changes from the previous build(7000). This build as well as the 7025 that appeared via some screenshots are in the rc branch of the development cycle.
Microsoft won’t release a second beta, just an RC build(maybe a second) and then the Gold RTM version. MS has shorten somehow the development cycle this means that either the Windows 7 OS has been in the making long before we find out(one of the first leaked milestones 6519 has a December 2007 date) or MS is in rush to get rid of Windows Vista.
Some of the changes in the new build, according to users from all around are:
- New sidebar icon and colors
- New Paint, slightly redesigned.
- HomeGroup gets a new icon.
- IE8 updated to RC1
- Faster search in startmenu, instant.
- New animations.
- Desktop Gadget Gallery is the new name for Sidebar. It gets a new icon!
- The transition\fade effect when you change wallpaper is new and pretty cool!
- the color of the task pane has changed from blue to white.
- Default UAC is the third level – Don’t notify me when I make changes (same as build 7000)
- New Jump List with some cool options
- New default color scheme on Aero and taskbar
- New icon for home group
- Fixes to WMP 12
