Hi :)
From a users pov.  


The thing i like about the current system is that it now successfully picks-up the various "Recovery" partitions created by OEMs or by Windows 7 (probably others too)

Ideally i would like the main Windows partitions near the top of the menu and those "Recovery" ones near the bottom along with options to test memory and stuff.  


I still find it frustrating that older kernels don't get hidden away but i gather that is dealt with by a more recent version than the one i am using.  


However, Grub2 is pretty fantastic as it is.  It seems a lot more robust and sophisticated than Grub-legacy and Lilo.  Even those 2 were far more robust and advanced than the Windows ones.  So, good work all!  

Many thanks and regards from 

Tom :)
