I will say that if you are impressed by the “touch features” in the iPhone, you’ll be blown away by what’s coming in Windows 7.
What are the things that spring to mind here?
- Vista is being derided as a turkey and here we have a Microsoft blogger selling us the next version? How about you finish Vista SP1 before you try and shark more money out of honest people, you utter bastards.
- Features in Apple’s current handheld first-generation product will be blown away by features in Microsoft’s unfinished shipping at some point around 2010 desktop/laptop operating system. Does anyone smell bullshit?
- Microsoft have been selling touch-screen Windows for years and years and they’ve all been turkeys. They couldn’t even produce a good Mobile OS.
- The last thing we heard about Microsoft’s “Surface Computing” was when they introduced a $10 000 coffee table to compete with the iPhone. That sank like a lead balloon though I’m sure they’ll sell four or five to a few Microsoft millionaires. Nothing like eating your own dogfood.
