it is an amazing blog by a very talented Systems Engineer, and this is the most amazing post (although it is just a share from youtube, i also thought it would be selfish not to share it).

Windows 7 bug fix’s

After hearing of the thousands (hell, two thousands!) of bug fixes and enhancements that Windows 7 users will be seeing as they make the journey from Beta to Release Candidate, you'd have thought that we'd heard the last of all that for a bit. But not so! It seems that Microsoft's own Engineering Windows 7 blog will be letting the improvements trickle out as they are addressed. So brace yourself for some exciting plot twists, such as improvements to the taskbar thumbnail overflow and various jump lists, the trimming of sound schemes to enhance system performance, and our personal favorite, the addition of multitouch zoom to Windows Explorer. How cool is that?

Expired Admin account while installing MS Exchange 2007

while installing MS Exchange server 2007 i had the following error message
“Setup encountered a problem while validating the state of Active Directory:.. etc”

after investigating the problem, seems like the admin account i was using has expired password that need renewal as the group policy stated, and what i had to do, is logoff , and login again, so that windows asks me to change the password and redo installation that moved on smoothly.

Exchange 2007 is up and running.
