Windows 7 ?

From the Tech Blog over at the Houston Chronicle:

Remember how fast ME was swept under the rug? Think it might happen again with Vista?

Microsoft's executives insist the company listens to its customers. Many of those customers have indicated they'll skip Windows Vista and consider Windows 7 when it comes out.
Their wish is apparently Redmond's command.

Wolfgang Gruener at TG Daily says he's obtained a leaked road map for the next version of Windows, and it shows Microsoft has put the operating system on a faster track:

Several industry sources have confirmed to TG Daily that a very early version of Windows 7, previously code-named Blackcomb Vienna, already has been shipped to "key partners" as a "Milestone 1" (M1) code drop for validation purposes. A roadmap received by TG Daily indicates that the new operating system will be introduced in the second half of 2009.
