Windows 7 Beta 1 6.1.7000.0 - 7000.0.081212-1400 Screenshot and ISO Details
Looks like the rumor that Windows 7 Beta 1 will have build version of 7000 has some truth in it, or at least the build version 6.1.7000.0 of Windows 7 does exist. Microsoft has silently made available download of Windows 7 Beta 1 DVD ISO image to selected people, independent of the Windows 7 beta participation invite.

announce that Windows DreamScene is now available.
As most of you already know, Windows DreamScene transforms your desktop from a static
wallpaper image into a full-motion video. In conjunction with Stardock, we're pleased to also offer a number of cool, new animated DreamScene
desktops, including "Aurora". Additionally, you can use your own videos as DreamScene desktops or visit Stardock's Dream.WinCustomize.com website
to download Stardock's DeskScapes (an add-on to DreamScene) as well as a collection of fabulous content created by Stardock and members of the

14.02.2007Windows DreamScene coming soon on Ultimate
Windows Vista Ultimate users
began to receive the first set
of "Ultimate Extras". But
arguably the most anticipated
Ultimate Extra was not there
-- Windows DreamScene.
Windows client
director, Jeff Putt has
confirmed that this extra will
not be available in its final
form immediately after launch.
However, a technology preview
may be coming soon for Windows
Vista Ultimate users who want
to give it a try.
Windows DreamScene enables
users to use looping
high-definition video content
(MPEG, WMV) as an animated
wallpaper. Thanks to the new
3D accelerated desktop in
Windows Vista, the animated
wallpaper uses virtually no
CPU (just a little for
decoding the video).
Microsoft demonstrated
Windows DreamScene yesterday
at the launch event which
showed Windows DreamScene
using an animated wallpaper
created by
Stardock
. The wallpaper they showed
will be available exclusively
at Neowin.net's partner site,
WinCustomize
.com, in February.
More information on
public availability for
Windows Vista Ultimate users
is expected soon.

30.01.2007Dreamscene Preview Ultimate Extra available
Microsoft have just released
the 'Dreamscene Preview'
Ultimate Extra to users of the
Ultimate Edition of Windows
Vista. Dreamscene, which was
revealed at CES 2007, was
missing from the lineup of
extras at the launch of Vista,
as it needed further work.
This preview release allows
Ultimate Edition users to see
what the final technology will
be like once the final version
is released to the public.
Your desktop
background comes to life with
Windows DreamScene™. When you
download this Ultimate Extra,
you can select a video for
your desktop background the
same way you select a
stationary picture. You can
choose one of the high-quality
looping videos that we've
included, or use a video from
a company that produces
content for DreamScene. You
can even use your own video as
a background.
To
download Dreamscene, click the
Windows Update or Ultimate
Extras shortcut on your start
menu, and click the 'Check
for new updates' link.

DreamScene (code-name Motion
Desktop). DreamScene is a
Windows Vista Ultimate Extra
designed to enable users to
use high-definition video
content as their desktop
background.
During
the demonstration, Microsoft
showed how little CPU
DreamScene uses thanks to its
utiliziation of the Desktop
Windows Manager (DWM).
Microsoft tapped
WinCustomize.com (a Neowin.net
partner) to host third-party
created content on a new site
called Dream.WinCustomize.com.
Microsoft also worked closely
with

during the development of
DreamScene and to produce the

11.05.2007Stardock to announce DeskScapes 2.0 “ Vista Ultimate Extras going the Way of the Dodo
Long Zheng:
Windows Ultimate Extras is losing value faster than
the US dollar as one of the few śextrasť is soon to be superseded by a free third-party application that works not only on Vista Ultimate, but Home
Premium and Business versions as well. That extra would be
DreamScene, that third party would
be
Stardock and that application would be
DeskScapes 2.0. Those grumpy looking people in the corner would be
Ultimate Extra advocates.
Tomorrow, Stardock will announce
DeskScapes 2.0 “ the second version of its desktop background visualiser tool for Windows Vista. Formerly DeskScapes was an
extension to the DreamScene extra, allowing for dynamic generated śDreamsť on top of just the motion videos allowed by DreamScene itself. Now, both
formats will be supported by DeskScapes 2.0 without the requirements for DreamScene or Vista Ultimate.

13.11.2007DreamScene RTM dated July 19, Microsoft: what took so long?
After Dreamscene was finally released, the anger built up over the months was somewhat subdued amongst Windows Vista Ultimate users. And yet, everyone
was quite curious on what took so long, as there didn't seem to be much of a difference between the beta preview released on February 28 (build
16455) and the final (build 16504) released yesterday. Well, unfortunately, what was discovered only raises mor questions. Dreamscene's core
component, Dreamscene.dll, had some interesting information other than just build numbers embedded within. According to the PE header and build string
of the library, the final Dreamscene build was compiled on July 19, 2007. Not only does that mean that there were a mere 49 builds in a grand total of
141 days, but one must ask, what exactly was Microsoft doing, other than testing of course, in the 68 days between build and release?

19.05.2007Windows DreamScene released!
Barry Goffe: In early July, I wrote about The Ultimate Teams intention to ship the remaining promised Ultimate Extras (DreamScene and the remaining
Language Packs) by the end of the summer. Unfortunately summer never really came to Seattle this yearso we missed our cue. That being said, we are
pleased to announce that Windows DreamScene is now available.
As most of you already know, Windows DreamScene transforms your
desktop from a static wallpaper image into a full-motion video. In conjunction with Stardock, were pleased to also offer a number of cool, new
animated DreamScene desktops, including śAurorať. Additionally, you can use your own videos as DreamScene desktops or visit Stardocks
Dream.WinCustomize.com website to download Stardocks
DeskScapes (an add-on to DreamScene) as well as a collection of fabulous
content created by Stardock and members of the Ultimate community.
While we are excited about shipping DreamScene, the remaining
19 language packs are, unfortunately, not yet ready for release. Recently we realized that Ultimate customers who tried to install the language packs
that shipped earlier this year were experiencing an unacceptably high number of failures during installation. We continue to make delivering the
highest quality, most secure Extras our top priority, and we will not ship any Extra until it is absolutely ready. We know this is disappointing, and
again we apologize, but we are working hard to ensure that all of the remaining language packs will be ready for release by the end of October.
On a different topic, as the broad beta for Windows Vista SP1 nears, people have noticed that the screen which welcomes customers to
Windows Ultimate Extras has changed. Our intent in making this change was simply to broaden the definition in anticipation of a broader range of
Ultimate Extras being available in the futurethat do not necessarily map to the original, narrow definition.
While I can
understand how community sites and bloggers may have read the new definition and assumed that Microsoft is not shipping any more Extras, in reality
the opposite is true. In addition to the remaining Language Packs, we plan to ship a collection of additional Windows Ultimate Extras that we are
confident will delight our passionate Windows Vista Ultimate customers. We will shed more light on these plans once the Language Packs are finally
dislodged from our delivery pipeline!
Thanks for your patience and your continued support.
I look forward to
sharing more positive news in the near future.

08.01.2009Let There Be Extras!
After months and months without seeing any updates to the so called "cutting-edge programs", "innovative services" and "unique publications"
that we like to call Ultimate Extras, users finally received a shred of hope for the long forgotten feature after the final version of Windows
DreamScene appeared on Windows Update for those running Windows Vista Ultimate edition.
In the past months, Ultimate Extras have
undergone mass criticism from users and the media due to the slow development and lack of releases. Ultimate Extras are considered the selling point
for many, and are what encouraged many to dish out the extra $200 for the all-in-one, Ultimate, version. However, Extras turned out to be nothing but
a series of disappointments. A mere four extras had been released since Vista's release, and users have been all but impressed,
some have gone as far as to say they were conned.
Today,
the gears are finally in motion after the Ultimate Extras team announced the release of the final version of Windows DreamScene. The final release now
includes a total of eight "DreamScenes", three of which are new to today's release.

that Microsoft got it right after mixed reviews on previous keyboard / mouse combos. The Keyboard: The keyboard has the Comfort Curve design
keyboard that has a slight bend in the keys to make the feel of typing more comfortable to the user. The keyboard has a small 6 degree bend in the
