Windows 7 (Currently at M1) - Due in 2009


Move over Microsoft Windows Vista. Windows 7 has reached Milestone 1 (M1) and is on track for 2009. As the last 32 bit operating system Microsoft will make, it looks like a last hurrah. Whilst M1 looks like Vista, it is not Vista SP1. It has some cool new MCE features, Gadgets and the Surface technology. It is like the touch feature on the iPhone's, but on steroids. I can hardly wait for M2.

 


 

Surface technology

 

Remember in the movie, Minority Report, Tom Cruise had that screen interface he controlled with gestures as he browsed through information? Eventually we’ll probably be browsing through the internet in a similar way.

 

To understand this, you really must visit this link

 

The launch of Microsoft Surface marks the beginning of a new technology category and a user-interface revolution. Surface, Microsoft’s first surface computer, provides effortless interaction with digital content through natural hand gestures, touch and physical objects. Surface computing breaks down traditional barriers between people and technology, changing the way people interact with all kinds of everyday information (Ranging from from photos to maps to menus).
