Microsoft Can’t you get anything Right?

I sit here listening to “Windows Weekly 61, Windows 7” and I wanted to talk about what he said and I quote:

Windows Vista was a major release, and Microsoft is positioning Windows 7 as a major release as well. However, the language Microsoft uses to describe the technical underpinnings of the Windows 7 suggest that this product will in fact be a minor release.

So My one questions is Windows going to be in fact a new whole system or just an update to Vista!! Here is some other quotes that I’ve found on the web:

Microsoft clearly are trying to launch Windows 7 as soon as possible, even though many users are only just getting around to upgrading to Windows Vista. I wonder if Windows 7 will be one upgrade too many for some customers?

So let’s start talking about this news. Will they be doing the final RC for Windows soon or are they going to wait till next year. It appears that they are going to do something soon but not sure what. They’ve been tight lipped from the start of windows Vista and have not been releasing anything big about Windows 7, Is this the attempt to hide there disgrace about Vista and how hard they are having to work for Windows 7?

First, there’ll be some new, unspecified integration with the Internet “cloud.” Windows 7 will have built-in connections with something like Microsoft’s “Live Mesh,” a Web-based system for sharing and synchronizing folders, learning the online status of friends and family, and syncing mobile devices with your desktop system.

Next, you’ll find automated backup, Microsoft’s catch-up answer to Apple’s Time Machine. This seems obvious from a leaked screen shot of the new Windows Health Center control panel applet in Windows 7.

So let’s Start talking about what Pc Magazine is talking about “cloud” computing. What they mean by cloud computing is like how you have google mail on your laptop but also on there website to be able to access it anywhere you have internet access. You can have it come in more than one ways and has the ability to keep your notes in Sync with other systems. Now they also are talking about the Apple’s Time Machine like backup for Windows 7, I am quite curious how they are going to do that also, they seem to be copying Apple and making it seem like they come up with even more features. Some other points I’d like to make are “Is Windows 7 a threat to Vista or a Complete replacement to Vista?”

PDC 2008 is slated for October 27 to 30 in Los Angeles. (I wonder if it will be right before/after/during the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference, also slated for some time next fall, and possibly in Los Angeles.)

Now here’s my thinking on this one that they will have to start developing programs and talk when and what will be involved in Windows 7. They serious can’t be thinking it’s all about Vista, I haven’t seen a shred of evidence to think this Professional Developers Conference is going to be anything but talk about the next Windows 7. I just want to ask Microsoft to get this right this time. I don’t want to see another system that has to many bugs for corporate to use. Is Vista a doomed O/S and if so why?
