Oh man, don't get me started, I hate Windows 7 so much (I have to use it 
though, it's the least bad of all alternatives for me). And unlike you 
Nick it's less common for me to hate stuff, so this is a bit more 
significant :P
But the issue is exactly the same. Technically Windows 7 is good (speed 
and stability), but the UI (same as Vista) is horrid, and I'm embarked 
on a very difficult quest to make it look as close as possible as my 
previous classic XP setup. I am already using three OS add-ons: Classic 
Shell, as you mentioned above; "7 Taskbar Tweaker", a small util to help 
ungroup similar items in the Windows taskbar; and that dll fix to allow 
custom themes to be installed , plus the Luna theme for Windows 7 
(http://satukoro.deviantart.com/art/Luna-port-to-Windows-7-Aero-136960235) 
which unfortunately doesn't work entirely well.
But even with all this it is still only halfway to what I had before 
with XP, and I haven't found a way to fix the remaining functionality 
aspects :SSSSS

Man, I'd wish it was 10-20 years into a future where the successor of 
Android had become a viable and cool X86 OS... :P
