Just installed Windows 7 Starter edition on a low-end spare notebook for testing purposes when I found this new wallpaper which ships with this edition of Windows. I have customized the original wallpaper with Windows 7 Starter logo just to make it look more cool! Both the original and the customized version with Windows 7 Starter branding can be downloaded from the links given below.

Windows Virtual PC along with XP Mode (RC) was released yesterday for Windows 7 Ultimate, Enterprise and Professional users. We all know that Virtual PC 2007 didn't have the support to enable Windows Aero in guest machines because of the built-in VM virtualized graphics driver which couldn't support true GPU hardware acceleration. Thanks to the powerful set of “Integration Components” in Windows Virtual PC and enhanced version of Remote Desktop in 7, we can now have full Aero Glass experience in Windows 7 VMs provided the host machine has Windows Aero enabled.
