Windows 7 demo is impressive

Impressively underwhelming, that is.

Seems that Microsoft is once again readying barely-warmed-over hash as "operating system software". Color this penguin unsurprised.

  1. Well, anything that isn't this that makes me really happy. I'm actually really excited about Windows 7, half because it's not Vista, and half because the speech recognition is supposed to be much much better.

    The one that came with Vista is completely useless, and market leader Dragon NaturallySpeaking does not integrate well as a means of controlling the OS.

    Also, I think tablet and handwriting support are supposed to get a big jump too, and these sorts of things are very useful, not just for those with disabilities.
