I'm a big fan of Aero Shake but my favourite is Aero Peek (gives you the ability to see the application window for a given application when you either alt-tab (and wait) or move the mouse over the task bar thumbnail) and you need Aero Peek to be on (see screen shot)

And the screen shot below is Aero Peek working ... just love it ! :D

I use it all the time. It is one of the best features of Windows 7.

I really like the jump list feature in windows 7. It is a new UI feature that shows a list of recently opened files in that application. Right click on the icon on your taskbar and you will see a list of recent files for that program. Alternatively, click on the taskbar item and hold the click down while simply moving the cursor up.

That's one of my favorites also. I also like the ease in switching to open windows when you have more than one open in a group. Also easy to close windows you don't need any longer.

I like the "Blue Screen of Death". It's kind of exciting to have this feature since you never know when it will happen.

So rigt with any version prior to XPO. Now things are stable since more time is spent developing drivers which was the cause of the problem.
