APCMag sums up the information we already have on Windows 7. "We're still in the long dark before 7's dawn, but the earliest signs are encouraging: a new streamlined kernel, an inbuilt VM for running old software, a revised and simplified UI... There's every chance that Microsoft intends Windows 7 to rise from the ashes of Vista and be what Mac OS X was for Apple."

There is nothing wrong with "ripping off public domain code". If it was about BSD code in OSX, I never heard anyone from BSD camp complaining. The license explicitly allows that. Only a fool would implement from scratch something that is available with no strings attached. Only a huge idiot would insist on being original at all costs.
Microsoft could have done much better job if they followed that path in the past.
