| Based on this (fwiw, of course), it sounds like anyone expecting a significant UI redesign in Windows 7 will be disappointed. But who knows. |

| One would really hope, though, that they will start exploiting WPF themselves. Where are the WPF apps?! |

#2, We're just going to have to build our own... and doing that.
I don't get it.... it really is a heck of a lot faster than any previous method... Now... getting UI/UX guys and others across the -n tier to move away from what they know... that is hard. We're doing that and I can share, it is work for all to begin to think differently... or is it that we're just "comfortable" I think this will take a few years for our industry to change - young people are more important and relevant than ever. |

| Enterprise enterprise enterprise! No other world exists. Seems like MS has entirely lost its direction now, even worse than Vista. All this "grand stuff planned" doesn't seem to be about a computer operating system. |

Send the bean counters home and put the people working in R&D in charge.
Do it sooner than later or someone will do to them what they did to IBM. |
