    Okay, so this is a silly request, but has anyone found a notepad gadget for Win7 like the one from Vista? I used that thing ALL THE TIME. It was quite possibly my favorite feature of Vista, lol. It seems conspicuously absent in Win7.

    Thanks!

    with the absence of an actual "sidebar" in W7, they've moved the sidebar notepad thingy to a program called Sticky Notes. you can find it under accessories in the start up menu. and i know how you feel, i love that lil app myself lol

    Great to hear Stella! i believe you can find a few "clipboard" type sidebar apps that will run alongside the other sidebar apps, if you'd like...try searching for it on here, i've found a few in the past couple days
