What’s new in Windows 7? We’re still learning. Not the guts of the OS, anyway. Microsoft will be keeping the Vista kernel in Windows 7.

Thanks to a couple of videos posted on YouTube (found via thinknext via Gizmodo) we also know that there’s a cool hover effect over the new Start button:

And a substantially upgraded integrated calculator.

The date-to-date measurement feature really is pretty nifty.
