New Doncha know Windows users don't like change? ;-)
But then, that is a fairly well-founded fear: Microsoft try to 'improve' things when they change them. So I'm betting MS will do something horribly mis-imagined with this change to the taskbar. After all, it's not a new idea. NextStep's app icons function like that.

New The W7 taskbar is a great improvement.
Quick Launch is exposed as the pile of fetid underpants it is, by it.

Aero Peek and the new right-click menus are just part of the "woo, that's better"-ness.

New Ok then
no worries for me because I like reese cups.

article made it appear that the functionality was now missing.

Have not, and likely will not for some time bother with Win7. Kids have Vista and I have Ubuntu (home) and XP (work and home (when doze is needed))
I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.
