There are numerous screenshot out there, but to be honest I don't believe any of them.
Vienna/Blackcomb/Windows 7 is still in the cradle and we shouldn't expect anything until next year at best. Maybe then we get to see a leaked alpha, or perhaps even beta.
Some of the alleged screenshots:

Well, the thing is that the "beta" that was sent out to partners a while back is more or less just a core. It doesn't have a GUI or anything, which means that any GUI pictures would look pretty much the as Vista or XP.

Too late, I've already moved to OSX 10.5 as my primary OS..... Windows XP is my second boot option for games ;o)

Running Vista on my laptop ... not really about it. I feel like all of the "new" things have been available with other OS's for years ...
Driver issues and overall sluggishness makes it even less desirable.

I would have to agree, Vista took MS many years to create and is not close to be as good as it should have been'. But I still enjoy working in Vista and I don't really want to run XP on my PC, Vista takes some time to get used to

I'm actually quite comfy with Vista nowadays. Guess 3DMark Vantage and DX10 benchmarks pushed me into it, but I feel as comfortable with Vista as with XP. Running Home Premium on my notebook and Ultimate on the bench rig, even my HTPC (don't shoot me, I didn't find an XP CD and don't really want to run Linux right now) runs Vista Ultimate. But then again, my HTPC is what people would call a gaming machine normally.

If the interface didn't irritate me so much I'd be running it now. Since almost every game released still comes in DX9 flavours I see no reason to switch at present.
