Some of the things I’ve noticed are excellent battery life (~8 hours on the 9 cell battery), quick response, and misreported memory.

Check out the screen shots after the cut and see if you can tell how much RAM I actually have installed.

Which Folder is Which?

Bug submitted. Although Windows 7 is quick at copying large numbers of files and folder, the copy dialog for folder copies (ie, copy a single folder from one location to another) doesn’t display the name of the folder you’re copying, only the source and destination paths. If you start copying one folder, then copy another and another, you end up with the above: three copy dialogs, and the only clue as to what folder belongs to which dialog is the contents scrolling by.

UPDATE: The bug I posted on this issue was closed as By Design – although that typically means nothing will be changed, occasionally the fix will be included anyways. Fingers crossed!
