Measuring up Windows 7’s new “super” taskbar. One of the most obvious changes you’ll see when you first boot into Windows 7 is the new taskbar dubbed the “superbar”.

On the other hand, the default “large icons” won’t kill you either. In fact, if you don’t pin anything to the taskbar, then you’ll only lose 2 pixels per application whilst gaining 8 pixels from the Start button. What will you ever do with all those extra pixels.
