We all know that Windows 7 is on its way, planned for release somewhere late 2009 or early 2010. We already know it will have a multitouch framework, no major kernel and/or driver framework changes, and a new taskbar people at Microsoft are not supposed to talk about right now. The firs two milestone releases didn't appear to be very exciting, but now there is - supposedly - a milestone 3 (build 6780) release, and there is a screenshot, and more information on UI changes. According to Microsoft blogger Stephen Chapman, the ribbon will make its way to Windows 7.

Me too, but since this is the FIRST ever big UI upgrade to Paint and Wordpad and punch of other applications at least in what? 20 years? oh man, this is going to be huge. Espesially if they manage to fix the performace issues and make ui more consistant. Server 2008 is not bad performance wise.
