  Morgue, it's available as part of windows live essentials. I presume they needed to save space on the CD / OS install size so they left it off as a value added additional. You can get is from

  Thanks, I'll use Windows Update to nab it. I'm just reporting on all my Windows 7 stuff in this thread ;) Others are welcome to do so too!
  
  As you may have seen in the WDM thread, I solved the video capture problem - at the expense of a lot of things that make Win7 worthwhile having.

  Downloaded Windows Movie Maker via Windows Update (thanks Nigs).
  
  For those of you keeping score, of the four initial problems that I had with Windows 7, three of them have been resolved. The last hurdle? Installing/enabling drivers for my Sound Blaster Live! Digital Entertainment sound card. However, I have a feeling that installing the necessary drivers may introduce some of the same instability that I noted in the WDM thread... BlueScreens galore. Which means that in the end, my upgrade to Windows 7 will force me to buy a new TV Card and a new Sound Card.
  
  !huh

  Hey noobies ... been using WIn 7 for the past 6 months...
  
  I have had little to no issues or complains regarding win7 ...
  
  Even the beta is better than Win Xp ... sorry but Vista wasnt a OS ... it was just a failed experiment.
  
  I noticed something on the connection side that it on occasion bombs out but nothing a restart cant fix.
  
  I also have routesentry installed and have a local and international connection running at the same time without problems...
  
  I installed RTM 64-bit and got it to blue screen within 2 min of startup so reverted back to RC1 (build 7100)
  
  At this point i'll wait for the full release before i go over since my RC is running problem free :)

  Sigh. When will people see the light? Microsoft is not the answer, it is the question to which the answer is NO. haha
  
  Seriously though, the new Ubuntu rocks :)

  Taking into consideration that I love playing games aspecially te ones that gets ripped of the net before its release date.
  
  and that Linux has a really sad emulator that needs to be updated and hopefully support has been added for that game ...
  
  The question would then be ... Linux for games?
  
  Answer ... HELL NO

  For some linux games.
