Now that i've played around with W7 for a bit... I want to try out new gadgets!

Anyone have any favorites?

Also, how can i tell if Aero 7 is working?

I don't use them so can't answer that bit. As for the Aero bit, if you have loads of icons in your taskbar, hover over one of them and all should go aero..

I've got this gadget in Vista that puts Recycle Bin, Control Panel, Explorer and My Computer in a little Window within the side bar.

Might not sound a lot but it means I have absolutely NO desktop icons, which is great.

Unfortunately, can't remember what it's called, lol

I have it saved somewhere, I dare say when I change to Win 7 I will find it.

I also like the little slideshow which is also in the sidebar and the global clock.

They're the only ones I have, I haven't actually looked for any others since my initial install, novelty wore off :D
