7 was the windows where the configuration options started become less pronounced. You had to "know" where to go to change any system configurations. There were also many different ways to do the same operations that XP and some other windows had just one way of doing a thing. I remember something like multiple ways of powering off windows just one example.

Its better than modern day windows in that it had better backwards compatibility layers (in my opinion).
