It is one thing when previous OS haven't got the functions of future OS, but it's completely different when future OS haven't got lot's of comfortable features that previous OS had. For me one of the most important features were Animated GIF image support since i work with graphic tools it was very easy to open and preview the image with windows picture and fax viewer, but ever since Vista started this dilemma i migrated to various image viewers which buy the way are very uncomfortable in control and have very limited features 
So what i would like to find out will Windows 7 finally have animated GIF support in photo gallery or is Microsoft planning to cut more handy features in they're new operating systems until we will return to 80's DOS Screens?
