I have to wonder what you are referring to with changing screen resolution, as 
"Screen Resolution" is one of the right-click menu choices on my Win7 install. 
I fail to see how Microsoft could reduce the clicks after right-click to less 
than one (until they get the whole mind-meld thing perfected that is). :-)

Personally I find the Vista/7 Control Panel to be convoluted. Especially in the 
Personalization properties area. For example, changing screen resolution in 7 
is too many clicks (from right-click on the desktop) with no obvious path to 
get there and is different than Vista. The breadcrumb trail in Personalization 
is difficult to navigate with some screens requiring you to apply the settings 
before moving on and others not. I can do what I need to do here, I just see no 
simplification over the XP style control panel. Some things were improved, but 
mostly not IMO.

IMHO, although I didn't enjoy the re-learning process, it's a lot simpler.
Just like the Office "ribbon" is much simpler - once you get used to it and are 
past cursing at it.

A: Because they can. :-) Seriously, it annoys me that Microsoft, in their 
INFINITE wisdom, chose to completely redesign the control panel and start menu 
and everything beginning in Vista. :-( Now, all those years of learning where 
everything was, are all for naught! :-(

<curmudgeon>Why does Microsoft feel a need to change the profile path with
