How to disable Windows Aero in Windows 7

Aero is a new advanced visual interface of Windows Vista and Windows 7. It includes completely renovated windows design with appearance of transparent glass, thumbnail preview of opened applications, smooth animations and a collection of new colors more mild, pleasant and relaxing for the view. An integral part of aero is FLIP 3D, which is a new way of organizing open Windows in a 3D view that the user moves through different Windows without having to be clicking the taskbar, either via the mouse or by using the keyboard keys.
