In version of windows previous with some software neat onscreen display (OSD) has come up to indicate a neat way of the user assessing the result of their action. For example, brightness control up or down, contrast up or down, volume control. These are all very similar to the current function of laptop/lcd/projector OSD that come up when selecting windows button and P together. In win7 a neat little icon bar appears with the selections to be made Lastly, every manufacturer has a different OSD. Some have nice simple ones, some have complex cluttered ones. If microsoft did the hard yards and made a sleek, sexy and fun one this would appease alot of pain. Can we please incorperate this into the new shell? It will be a great addition to win7 Fingers Crossingly yours, Goooody Example of nice simple (microsoft intellitype OSD) Image: Example of Windows + P function (much loved!! thanks microsoft) Title Submit Cancel Reason

That Microsoft should program various HardwareCompanies OSD displays for them is not likely to happen even if Microsoft should want to do so I doubt that the Hardware Companies will want to pay them to do it.

yeah, and how do you expect backward compatibility? if you were a monitor manufacturer, would you make your monitors linux and mac incompatible? no. pretty bad idea if you ask me.

Thank you for your suggestion. I will forward it to our internal team as feedback. Thanks again.
