Am I missing something? Can't you right click on the taskbar, hit properties, then look under taskbar appearance, uncheck "Group similar taskbar buttons"?

Yup, in XP you can. I don't use Vista anymore (my illegal copy got turned off by MS and I never bothered getting a legit one), so I figured they took that option out of Vista since he was ranting about it.
richms:
Not on an app by app basis you cant turn it off, its an all or nothing thing.
With explorer windows it is ok to group since they have sensible titles, but you lose that in windows 7 untill you mouse over the things, its just making things have mystery meat navigation too much IMO.

They should make 1 version: Windows 7 ultimate, and sell it for 129$ (Apple Leopard price) and make no strange impossible OEM licenses. Then it is good.

I was reading an article somewhere (can't find it now, sorry) that said that Microsoft learned their lesson with vista and isn't going to release umteen versions of 7.
Zero_Hour:
I've seen several articles claiming that Win 7 will continue with the multiple flavor scheme - Toms Harware & ZDNet were a couple of them.
What will be brought down to a single version is the "Windows 7 Ready" Sticker that they slap on New PCs - Vista had 4 variants apparently.
