There were some applets that were not enhanced or added with new features to the standard Windows applets like Notepad, Calculator, Paint, Wordpad and others.These applets were not modified in any previous versions of any operating system. As Notepad is an applet which has been a part of the Windows operating system from its begining, also the edition of notepad which was available in Windows 3.0 is the same in Windows 7. It is fulfilling its task for which it is basically designed that is editing the text. It has been nineteen years for this applet to serving its task of editing the text.The support for multiple windows and the ability to add line numbers would have been a perfect additions, but, at in the current beta version of the new Windows 7 operating system, Notepad has not been given any new features.
WordPad applet was introduced first in Windows 95 operating system and it has remained unchanged in almost each and every edition of the operating system till Windows Vista. After 14 years, the wordpad menu and the ribbon based user interface has been added in the WordPad included in the new Windows 7 operating system. Various word processing features which were not present in previous versions have been added into this version made available in the new Windows 7 operating system. As for example, the facility of modifying the text, using many styles of bullet points, including options for inserting pictures, making use of subscripts and superscript, setting the zoom level, opening and saving the files in the office open XML formats and open documents formats. The Calculator in Windows 7 operating system has been enhanced. The improvements are long overdue in this edition.
For example there is an option of Mode menu which allows the facility to switch between the various types of modes such as: Standard, Scientific, Programmer, and Statistics modes.There is an History feature which has the facility to display the history of any calculations made by the user and also allows you to copy, paste, edit, the history. There are certain worksheets present that allow the user to easily and fastly perform some common calculations, like the calculations related to unit conversions, date calculations, and gas mileage and many more.
In other development, the changes Microsoft made to Windows Vista meant that Windows, again, was ahead of the hardware curve. The system wouldn't run well on many existing PCs, and its Aero UI required a class of graphics accelerator that some users especially those with low end laptops simply didn't have.
Windows 7 is the sum of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of tiny changes, none of which would be particularly interesting in isolation. But taken as a whole, the result is surprising. Where Vista felt incomplete and scattered, Windows 7 seems enhanced. This kind of enhancement is hard to point to in any general way because it's all over the points. Every nook and cranny in Windows 7 has been given the once-over, and where changes needed to be made, they were made. There are big modifications, like the new taskbar and the yet-another-edition-of-Windows Explorer. But there are also many, many tiny changes.
