Windows "Windows 7 will be more than just a better interface. Under-the-hood changes will allow chips from Intel, Nvidia, and Advanced Micro Devices to ratchet up Windows 7 performance above previous Microsoft operating systems. Microsoft on Wednesday said it has finalized the code for Windows 7, set to ship with new PCs starting October 22. Improvements will include how Windows handles multitasking, graphics acceleration, and solid-state drives."

- basic, fundamental features of a modern OS (like real memory management, proper multitasking, the ability to run for more than an hour without crashing, etc)
- an OS that could act as a capable server
- running on x86 hardware, instead of underpowered/overpriced PPC junk
- an OS for PDAs / smartphones
- productivity software
- instant messaging software

Wow - can't Apple come up with any original ideas, instead of just shamelessly stealing from Microsoft?
