Where to ask W-7 Questions?

Is there another newsgroup, or website, where questions
about Windows 7 should be addressed?

(My question, in case anyone here knows the answer, is:
Does Windows 7 include the option, as XP and Vista have, to
have the appearance be in "Windows Classic" mode?

Thanks.

Hi,

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/default.aspx

Microsoft has apparently decided that all peer support should be on their
new web support site.

If you're referring to the desktop theme, then yes, Windows 7 includes
it. You can Win7 look just like Win2K, if you like.

HORRIBLE!!!!

THEY MUST USE NEWSGROUPS/USENET, MOST PROFESSIONALS CONSIDER WEB-INTERFACE
ABHORRENT.
WHY CAN'T SOMEONE AT MICROSOFT GET IN THEIR HEAD THAT OLD DOESN'T MEAN BAD.
NEWSGROUPS ARE OLD, SO?
