stupid question time

Build 5308 was supposed to have the sidebar. I can't find it. Am I stupid, or is it still missing? -- Pierre Szwarc Paris, France

Yeh, it's in there. Start > All Programs > Accessories > Sidebar.

Why can't it just be in the Toolbars submenu? (from the Taskbar)

I am running 5270. Is this not an option for this version? Do i need 5308? Also, where are the 45 degree rotated window view or win space options? I read that by pressing Windows key + spacebar, it would enable it. Also, what happended to the Alt-Tab tully animated thumbnails of the application window? i saw all these screenshots with these options and i can't seem to find them in the OS.
Any ideas. Hey, you said this was the stupid question section.
Thanks.

If you mean by the "45 degree rotated view" you mean Flip3D, it's Windows key and Tab. Aero Glass must be enabled though. (Customise Flip3D here: http://www.vistabase.co.uk/welcome.php?subcats/graphics/limitflip3d)
The Alt+Tab without Aero Glass displays standard switching of windows, however with Glass enabled, you can see the thumbnails of each windows when you hover over them in the taskbar, or in the Alt+Tab view.
More info on Flip and Flip3D: http://www.vistabase.co.uk/welcome.php?subcats/performance/flip3drundown
