My Network Places, which worked so badly for network browsing in
Windows XP, is gone.
The Network and Sharing Center, which you can access through Control
Panel, is a central location with links to various network-related
functions, including "View computers and devices".
An interesting new feature is the network map, which shows the
topology of the network computers, switches, router, etc. To see it,
click "View full map". To enable Windows XP computers to appear in
their proper place in the network map, install the LLTD Responder on
them. It's available here:

An easy way to access another computer on the network is to click the
Start button, type the other computer's name in the Start Search box
in this format, and press Enter:
\\computer
