Progress Bar On The Taskbar In Windows 7
Another extremely useful feature added to the next generation OS of Windows 7 is a progress bar that fills up on the taskbar itself. When downloading files, copying files, burning files, etc., you will see a nice progress bar that glows translucent on the taskbar. Very cool.
In previous versions of Windows, you would always have to bring the dialog box to the front to see the progress of the given task. Windows 7 makes it super simple, no matter if your multi-tasking or if you have tons of other windows open. A quick glance at the taskbar will inform you to a percentage complete bar. Microsoft really curtailed this Operating System to every nook and cranny with features like this that make computing easy and fun.
