| | Will Windows 7 be visually similar to Vista? I'm curious if Windows 7 is going to be similar to Vista in terms dialog box layout, GUI characteristics, etc. Or is it going to be changed (like how XP differed from Win 98 SE, for example.) Thanks |

| | Thank you all very much I really appreciate the replies. They have been very helpful. I'm having a hard time transitioning from XP to Vista in part due to the substantial changes in the GUI for Dialogs, Folders, etc. I was hoping that Windows 7 would perhaps take a step closer to Windows XP so that the contrast was not so stark. You know - address bars on top, Command Bar in IE 7 on the same line as the tab bar, that "Organize, Views, System Properties, etc." bar under the address bar in those dialogs / folders, etc. But according to those screen shots, I'm going to face the same thing when Windows 7 hits, so I guess I am going to need to learn to be proficient in the changes. I like in XP how I can turn off the button bar, address bar, etc. for any dialog / folder window. I can't seem to find a way to do that in Vista. Regardless, thank you again for the helpful replies. I really am grateful. |
