Cannot see a Win 7 MS newsgroup so I thought I would ask here

When I use Start | Computer I can see all my drives such C: D; the card
reader slots and the external hard drive. All but one of these display with
an icon that look like a hard dive. But C: display a document icon -
rectangle with top right corner folded and holding a 'window' with 6
coloured circles.

Any reason you this should be?
It is not causing any errors I can detect but looks odd

THERE IS NO OFFICIAL MICROSOFT WINDOWS 7 NEWS GROUP, ONLY FORUMS!

So what? The "official" groups - the ones hosted on
msnews.microsoft.com - are places where users of the various MS
products come to help each other out. MS employees don't post here
(unless you're an MSDN subscriber, which costs a bundle). That's also
true of other newsgroups, including alt.windows7.general. The
difference that I see is that the alt group is harder to find than the
ms.p.* groups. I'd love to see a "Big-8" group dedicated to Win7, that
might be easier to find.
