32-bit vs. 64-bit
Ribbon
Introduced in Office 2007, it is clear that Microsoft will continue to push the Ribbon interface over the more familiar drop-down menu and toolbar approach to using programs. If you want to get a taste of the Ribbon, start up Microsoft Paint or WordPad on a computer running Windows 7 and you can see for yourself whether the Ribbon is going to be useful or just another technology forced upon you.
Aero Desktop
No e-mail Client

2. In Windows XP there is an inbuilt in email client called outlook express, but in Windows 7 Microsoft removed that build in email client, you need to install separate clients like Microsoft outlook or Thunderbird.. etc
