Am I right in thinking that Windows 2008 R2 and Windows 7 are very similar and based on the same core?

If that is so, can I use Windows 2008 R2 drivers in Windows 7 and visa versa?

Yes, you are correct in that the same kernel is used. Just be careful.

in collusion with the other national powers of the Earth, is determined to keep this information from the general public."
