What Windows Gadgets Do You Have Installed?

Posted by admin On January - 26 - 2010

http://go.tagjag.com/pcpitstop – http://twitter.com/chrispirillo – We are typically talking tech in our community, and that goes for our sister community, as well! PC PitStop has been kind enough to work with us on a number of occasions. So, when they asked me to answer some tech questions from their community, I was only to happy to help! This particular question comes in from Carlos. He wonders if Windows 7 has a sidebar like the one found in Windows Vista. http://geeks.pirillo.com – http://lockergnome.net – http://chris.pirillo.com

    I own an iPhone 3G, I think it is coming up to a year since I bought it now.
    I can not wait till this contract run’s out and to get onto Windows Mobile 7.
    I am sick of looking like a 14 year old hipster holding an iPhone.

    What I don’t understand is why they removed the tray icon. The only way to close the “sidebar” is to actually kill the process, not right-click the tray icon and click Exit like in Vista – one of the few things that Windows Vista is better at.

    Windows 7 won’t let you have an always on top sidebar, with windows maximising slightly smaller to achieve this, much in the way they don’t maximise over the taskbar. This is a downgrade from vista, which allowed you to choose between this and free gadgets.
