Windows 7
Interview with Steven Sinofsky about Windows 7:

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-9951638-56.html?tag=cnetfd.mt

Quick summary of the only 2 things learned here:

1. This is a major windows release rather than a minor release (I heard it was supposed to be a minor release/update)

2. They don't want to talk about anything else...

Smart what they're doing IMO, instead of being so open like they were with Vista, they're not talking about it so it doesn't get over-hyped like Vista was, so if a feature gets dropped (like a lot did with Vista) we might not even know about it...

yeah it has taken them 5 or 6 version of windows to learn not to promise too much...most people would be happy if they would just fix what they already made and make it faster.

its a video demoing the multi-touch stuff that'll be in windows 7 ... think iphone UI on a much larger scale, pretty cool...
