Windows Windows 7 has been making waves around the net for a while now, and we already know some of the more encompassing goals of Microsoft's next operating system release. It's going to be built on top of the foundations laid out by Vista and Server 2008, but it will not increase hardware requirements. There's going to be a multitouch framework, and a new mystery taskbar. That's more or less all we know. Microsoft also said they were going to be more tight-lipped during the development process, something they will continue to do, but they did open a blog today: Engineering Windows 7. The E7 blog is written by Jon DeVaan and Steven Sinofsky, two senior engineering managers for the Windows 7 product.

Ironically, it wasn't meant as a Microsoft or MS style joke (oh, what a surprise, dollar signs are converted to S here so you'll have to use your imagination - how original!), and there are an awful lot of different ways of justifying it. I didn't really think I'd have to go through them....................again.

$$$$$$$ - Mmmmm, but they seem to come out OK here. I wonder...........

O$News - Hmmmmmmm, that looks OK.

MS - Yes, there was a dollar sign there........ Hmmm.........

Microsoft - Yes, I did put a dollar sign where the 's' was. Hmmmmmmmm, that's not coming out edited either. Strange. OSNews isn't looking for instances of MS and Microsoft with dollar signs and doing some swift string replacement, is it?

Cheers Thom. I did circuit training last night, but you've just given me the biggest stomach muscle workout I've ever had :-D.
