Despite the display of the table of contents with its links, there seems to be no way to view individual sections. All I get is a 30-sec preview. These are useless unless there is also a way to view the entire section.
All I can seem to get is the 30-sec previews. I'm not going to sit through a 7-hour video to see a single section that I'm interested in.

For those just starting with Windows 7, this video is ideal. For those old hands with Windows, this may be a bit slow paced but still provides a good review of what's new/changed.
I highly recommend this to those new to Windows and Windows 7.
