Hi, I have changed the thread type to comment and I will forward the feedback to our internal team. In addition, we have a Feedback thread available where you can post product suggestions and any other feedback. The Forum Owner will periodically collect these messages and send them directly to the Windows 7 Product Development Teams. Here is a link to that thread for your convenience. Have Comments about Windows 7 Beta? Thanks.
