*The boot screen bitmap has been updated: apart from using again the same, colored Windows logo found in [[Windows XP]], it also uses the Segoe UI font (previously used in the default wallpapers of Milestone 5 and 6 builds).

*The whole user interface has been revamped: the welcome screen sports a new background with a gray-blue gradient and has been generally updated to fit the new [[Slate]] theme, which replaced [[Plex]] in the role of placeholder for the back then heavily secured [[Windows Aero|Aero]] theme. Some parts of the UI still show traces of the older Plex theme though, as it can be seen in the Windows setup itself, the bitmap of the "About Windows" dialog box, the "Longhorn Screen Saver" or in some Aero wizards. Disabling the Sidebar will also make the Start button show the older white Windows logo, in addition to bringing back the "start" text.
