  Leaks indicate Microsoft is un-rethinking the Win7 taskbar
Time: 00:05 EST/05:05 GMT | News Source: BetaNews | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

During last week's touring WinHEC conference in Beijing, attendees were treated to the latest Windows 7 build running in a virtual machine. Trouble is, someone apparently pilfered a copy of the VHD, and now it's loose.

The security around uninstalled copies of Windows 7 is fairly tight. But the security around a copy that has been installed to a PC's virtual machine, might not be tight at all. So an attendee at last week's Beijing WinHEC conference was apparently able to copy the VHD file for the virtual machine to a thumb drive, before uploading it to a Web file host, and providing the link to a very popular Chinese beta news site.

Actually ... not really.

I've tried to look it up but I have watched a plethera of PDC vides and the WinHec keynote and they did mention somewhere that text titles were an otpion. Does look they have done some clean up work. But I am thinking this is a non-story.

Long time reader - first time comment.

You're correct leriksen. Text labelling was an option in the 6801 build as well. Nothing new here... move along :-)
