From ghacks.net

Everton from Connected Internet and I are running a Windows 7 joint venture located at Windows 7 News dot com which is providing everyone with news about the upcoming Microsoft operating system. The announcement that Microsoft would keep the name was really exciting and motivated us to bring the news site to the next level.

Might be worth a read, although most of what currently passes for Windows-7 "news" on the web more accurately falls into the rumor mill category. This site should become more useful once Microsoft starts making real announcements.

Looks to be a professional offering, although ghack's comment "The announcement that Microsoft would keep the name was really exciting and motivated us to bring the news site to the next level." sounds a bit fanboy to my ears. If that's what's considered exciting news, please, please, pretty please, bring it to the next level!


(I must be getting grumpy in my dotage. ;D)

I think I screwed up. Should this have been posted here instead?

I think new Windows will even ommit "My" out of everything, they' owe that anyway  :P

40hz that was a personal comment. It simply means that I'm happy that they did not change the name because of the domain names that I own ;) I did not rate the name in any way although I think that it will do better than Windows Vista or any other name like that.

About the apps getting updated. While it hopefully is not their top priority it was time to update some of the applications that ship with every new Windows operating system to this century. I hope they stick with the "simplicity" theme throughout the whole operating system.
