Disable Aero Shake in Windows 7
Of all the new UI features, Aero Shake is arguably the most gimmicky. I find that I trigger it quite often by accident by moving a window very quickly to peek at something else behind it. If you have the same issue, How-to Geek details a registry fix on disabling Aero Shake.
Ars Technica compares Windows 7’s new taskbar to the OS X Dock
I always thought the OS X Dock a great app until I actually had to use it for a while. Then I discovered that it wasn't all that great at managing multiple minimized windows. At least it's slicker than anything Windows has (Expose didn't help me much either, oddly enough.)
I haven't been all that impressed with the Windows 7 taskbar so far either but it's great that Microsoft is trying to improve it. That's not to say that I don't like it - but until more apps start integrating themselves better into it, I don't think we'll see its full potential.
