Default Windows 7 Official Video

YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


A quick quote from a website (which i forgot the URL to)
[quote]Estimate Goodies:

1) Operating System = Less than 1GB installed fresh
2) Ram recommended for FULL performance = 512MB - 1GB (anything higher will be un-needed)
3) Smallest & Most Secure Windows EVER!
4) Backwards Compatible time machined to Windows 95
5) OS will be pricey, but updates vary on user experience (thus making it ALMOST open source...basically, you suggest ideas, and if good enough, BAM, done!)[quote]

haha.
1: Less then 1GB? hmm...
2: That is pretty good actually.
3: Windows & secure.... in the same sentence? haha. Can I just remind everyone when they said the same about Vista? and then that video was spread all across the internet of the two hackers on live TV... in less then 1 min, they had hacked into it, and had full control over it.
4: Windows 95? Why?
5: Pricey? I thourght Vista was pricey? I'm not going to buy it. And I don't think many people will be... *Unless if they do an offer with Dell again). And about time! Microsoft are finaly going to start listening to their customers!

Okay, I guess this article has been a little bias, as I'm a Linux guy, but hmm.. if you watch that video.. the effects and things are great. But do ou really want to be using that every day? I see it more as something cool has came out, lets have a play with it. People will get bored of it.

What do you all think?

I don't know why people are so facinated with touch screen technology. It is good for some things like self checkouts and ATMs, but no thank you on my personal computer.

Yeah exactly!
I like my mouse pad and keyboard.
I think they may be making a bad mistake
