Recommended: Click here to check for outdated driversBill Gates highlighted Windows Vista as well as gives a vision on how personal computing technology will go in the future.
During his demo, Mr. Gates was able to integrate his information and data seamlessly across a cell phone, tablet PC, and his desktop PC that was connected to a 40 inch monitor that divided the display into 3 work areas.
During the upcoming announcements, Microsoft showed up the new Windows Media Player which is a lot cleaner than previous versions. The next Windows Vista explorer provides a host of useful features for modifying data such as being able to crop and do basic editing on images without having to load a graphics editing package.
Internet Explorer 7 was shown off with its Firefox-like tabs but with some very interesting twists.
Much of the push on Windows Vista so far has highlighted a cleaner, faster, more polished look combined with a heavily revamped plumbing underneath. GDI and the myriad of vulnerable networking APIs are gone and replaced with a new architecture.
Those who were worried that Vista was just Windows XP with a new look have nothing to fear, it's a very definite change for better.
I will be providing mini-blogs on this as well which you can read on Neowin and WinCustomize.com.
