Windows7 - The Next Generation of Windows! features and more..

Posted on 28 July 2008

Tired of windows Vista, longing for something new? Well then this is just the great news you have been looking for! Unleashing the next generation of the windows operating systems, Windows 7!!

It is most likely to be released by the next year end or probably starting of 2010!

It has been reported that Windows 7 has been made available to the key partners of Microsoft already. It would include the new version of Windows Media Center including new gadgets being integrated into Windows Explorer, a Gadget for Windows Media Center, the ability to visually pin and unpin items from the Start Menu and Recycle Bin.

It will also have improved media features, with the XPS Essentials Pack being integrated, and a multiline Calculator featuring Programmer and Statistics modes along with unit conversion and much more!

What’s more? It is expected to provide better versions of notepad, WordPad, MSpaint and its featured applications in the lower version along with improved network connection tools might be included.

Check this out! Windows Security Center gets a new name - the Windows Health Center, and focuses on monitoring the complete health status of the computer in a central location.

The sizzling hot new windows operating system is featured with multi-touch, including a virtual piano program, a mapping and directions program and a touch-aware version of MSPaint, something which can be considered to compete with the capabilities of the so far unrivalled Apple’s iPhone!

Apparently, a minimalist variation of the Windows API and core libraries, known as MinWin, are supposedly designed as a part of the Windows 7 architecture, aimed towards componentizing the Windows libraries and reducing their dependencies, with a view to carving out the minimal set of components required to build a self-contained system. It would be based on the same NT kernel as the rest of the Windows family.

All the features and the dependencies are consolidated into MinWin and what is not needed is removed at the code level itself. As a result, you would be able to compile the code even without any extraneous components by building a stripped-down self-contained OS image.

The new Windows 7 would be capable of creating, mounting, performing I/O operations on, and dismounting virtual hard disks! Just imagine your self being able to mount a virtual hard disk on any Windows machine, do some offline servicing and then boot from that same, or perhaps, taking an existing one you currently use within Virtual Server and boost performance by booting natively from it! Doesn’t it sound simply amazing?

Well there’s more to it, as the Windows 7 is also considered to be the big step towards the speech technology and handwriting recognition when has never been experienced before!

So fasten your seat-belts and prepare yourself for a fascinating ride into a whole new world of Windows 7!!
