Cool. Now make something for Linux! I heard the next GNOME will have a wallpaper switcher and wallpapers for each desktop, but until then I can't tell which desktop is which!

@bachya: When there's a new feature for (usually) Windows, it's perhaps useful to point out that OS X or Linux have the feature, even if just to remind Windows users that it's not exactly new.

Nice to see Google continues to support Mozilla!

@Stallion187: I know that; I like Boxee (having used it before) except nearly everything is US Only. I got one bit of low-quality video (I think it was YouTube or something) that was available. Certainly Hulu is the jewel in its crown.

the LH team might want to mention that this is only viable in the 50 United States and not in countries like Canada and everywhere else where sites like Hulu don't work due to US Copyright law/licensing agreements.

This is news? Seriously, this kind of stuff is old hat for Microsoft.

Using Ubuntu with CompizFusion, which can do all these things out of the box ;) . If you really want customization, Linux/BSD systems are really the best for it. I still don't understand why MS hasn't implemented at LEAST a theme engine like GTK so that people can customize their desktops more easily (Ok, well, it

@Kaelri: If you get into the whole scripting of Conky you can move stuff. It's definitely not easy, but possible nonetheless.

I'd certainly like the option to store it locally. Then I'd use it for my pictures and stuff that I WANT backed up online but I want on my computer.

@The Limority Report: Hey, we get along just fine with a little old lady who smiles and waves. Perhaps you have more power invested in your executive, but smile-and-waving is half the thing.

Can't watch... It's in Silverlight and I have yet to get Novell Moonlight to run on my 64 bit Ubuntu...

@kd420: ADD is great. I used to use it all the time.

@Kabatology: Yeah. Usually don't see that kind of extensiveness with Windows. Kudos to the developer.

@klumsy: Seeing as EXT3 is superiour to NTFS, I think it's favourable.

YES! I love Chrome and it's the only thing I use when on Vista and when I'm in Ubuntu I feel myself aching for its awesomeness.

I'll download it just out of sheer curiousity to see if Microsoft is actually capable of making an OS that isn't crap...

@ZalikaOsgood: Most of the time on a laptop (unless your desktop has a battery) the fan doesn't run or runs negligably.

Too bad there's not a Burger King within about 100 klicks of me. I have some friends that could go.

Meh.
