Some features that are new in Build 6780 (Milestone 3) :

* The sidebar that comes with vista is essentially being replaced in Windows 7, now gadgets will be completely embedded on your desktop. Making it more so like Apples Dashboard feature in OSX.

*Homegroups, the successor to Workgroups. HomeGroups purpose is to make it easy for users to create secure networks groups for sharing media, files, and settings across multiple computers in a LAN.

* UI Tweaks in programs such as Paint and Calculator and the general OS.


Some Rumours that i have found but i cant confirm:

* Even more Windows Live Integration than Milestone 1

*Integration of Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2

Giggle... I know Linux is very prone to breakages, I just wish Windows and Apple could think of something before they do now That's geek power for you though!

Fully integrated gadgets is what Vista should have had! I mean, you splash out on transparencies etc but couldn't be bothered to lose the sidebar and keep the gadgets?

And still they have no news about virtual desktops

Still... it's progress I suppose!
