Max Veteran Posted January 18, 2008 Veteran Share Posted January 18, 2008 Why does is say 'Please What..." on those screenshots. Clearly faked. My thoughts exactly :p So incredibly bad. Its also too quick and too eye-candy-like to be an alpha build, really.

Roger H. Veteran Posted January 18, 2008 Veteran Share Posted January 18, 2008 interesting is what i'll say about that Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/614120-windows-7-m1-is-here/page/3/#findComment-589143830 Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Frothy Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 interesting is what i'll say about that I guess. But those screenshots, except for the bootscreen (which might be real); the design philosophy and bad spelling aside, just doesn't look like a genuine build. Plus at M1 the UI would be very much like Vista, some new user interface bits would make it into Beta 1 but the user interface would not be anywhere nearly done until at least Beta 3 / RC. So I conclude that these screenshots are not of Windows 7 M1.

Digitalx Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 (edited) Yeah, ok, those are clearly fake. 1.) Not using the Windows 7 alpha boot screen. 2.) Does not use a mixture of XP Icons. 3.) They are not up to build "7000", or code naming it 'Longhorn'. That was Vista. 4.) MSN Messenger 12 Does not exsist. Windows Live Messenger 8.5 however, does. 5.) Windows HD Player...all i can say is wtf ? 6.) IE 11...wtf? with IE 6 icon...wtf? 7.) Why would it have what looks to be a very poor knock attempt of longhorns 'My computer' from back in preview videos ?. 8.) Inconsistent UI, this is probably the most obvious over all. 9.) Copyright 2007 eh ? I'd say good work at wasting time whoever made it.

Brandon Live Veteran Posted January 18, 2008 Veteran Share Posted January 18, 2008 By Looking at this, looks like Microsoft is back to Longhorn, if this is not a fake... If?

XPero Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 I'm pretty sure that the *last* thing MS will do to Windows 7 in these early stages is to change its looks. They will probably focus on more important things like cleaning the kernel, implementing new features.

vipwoody Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 In the picture you can notice that the rams are 80% lol. :D I don't think this is fake. I am sorry for all the people who say this is fake, but watch the video and see. Who the hell can make a theme for vista that looks like that and fake it? I believe it is impossible and this is really Windows 7.

M1 typicly means coding changes, no new features (not many really) but same small appreance changes to what MOSTLY looks like the last OS (Vista in this case) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/614120-windows-7-m1-is-here/page/3/#findComment-589146289 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it is impossible and this is really Windows 7. I'm sorry but it's an obvious fake, as stated by the name 'MSN Messenger', and IE11. Since when does MS skip 4 versions of a program just to put a 'newer version' into an alpha stage OS. They wouldn't. Any Windows 7 M1 out there will probably be running IE7. -Spenser Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/614120-windows-7-m1-is-here/page/3/#findComment-589146426 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rev Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 My thoughts exactl:p:p So incredibly bad. Its also too quick and too eye-candy-like to be an alpha build, really. You know, though its probly fake, consider this...... Why NOT include the new gui in alpha builds? I mean, look what happened with Vista...... They waited too damn long to integrate the new GUI into beta builds that it ended up being detrimental to the performance of Vista..... Honestly, I think they SHOULD create the gui first...... at least then, they'd have over a year to tweak the gui so its not going to drag down your computer like it has in XP and Vista.
