Microsoft forbids changes to Windows 7 netbook wallpaper
Found on The Register on Thursday, 18 June 2009
Windows 7 Starter Edition not only blocks end-users from swapping the original Windows-provided wallpaper, colors, and sound schemes - OEMs and partners aren't allowed into the personalization options either.
At least Microsoft no longer plans on limiting the number of applications Starter Edition can run at once - so extremely desperate users can always fall back to running Notepad in the background for makeshift ASCII art.
That's so ridiculous.
