If anyone has any known working ways to make Win 7 look and act like Windows Classic....from the Start Menu to the Task bar, and how to make My Computer permanently show text instead of icons...please post them here. Thanks

FYI: Turning off Aero causes the desktop to be drawn using the CPU and not the GPU. This probably isn't a big deal but I figured I'd warn you :)

You can change the icon to a list view/all text at the top right where it says view.
