Windows 7 RC1 Build 7100 Overview

-
I am actively using the new version of Windows (post Vista) so that when it becomes available to the enterprise, I will already be a Windows 7 expert.

This is the 6th beta build I have used and I have to say it has been so much easier to try all these different builds than previous Windows versions since the Windows 7 Upgrade option is so smooth. I can say with some degree of certainty that each one has improved on the last with 7057 being the most striking improvement so far with much of it ending up in the RC1 build, 7100.

Builds I have used:

7000
7000 => 7022
7022 => 7048
7048 => 7057
7057 => 7068
7068 => 7100

7068 (and 7100) fixes the problem in 7057 where it would open up the desktop.ini file from the start folder (this was a quick fix... all you had to do was delete the desktop.ini file, but, this frustrated some testers).

I could not share a folder in 7057 without having the user enter a password to view it... This is fixed in 7068.

7100 is very, very nice and also includes the final IE8. The final IE8 does sometimes crash, but, it has an instant recovery that is... well... smooth. I have it installed on 3 computers and am loving it on all three.

Very fun, Very cool.
