Don’t Wait for Windows 7

Wed, 29 Oct 2008 13:46:29 +0000

I just recevied an updated paper from Microsoft regarding Windows Vista and some statements why not to wait for Windows7.

There is no need to wait for Windows 7. It is a goal of the Windows 7 release to minimize application compatibility for customers who have deployed Windows Vista since there was considerable kernel and device level innovation in Windows Vista. The Windows 7 release is expected to have only minor changes in these areas. Customers who are still using Windows XP when Windows 7 releases will have a similar application compatibility experience moving to Windows 7 as exists moving to Windows Vista from Windows XP. * *

In both work and private life moving to Vista becomes a dominating topic. Of course there are reasons to stay on XP and hold on for another 2 years and then move to Windows 7, but should Microsoft release Windows 7 as planned in early 2010, it then still takes at least a year until enterprise users will see it, as from experience, enterprises don’t adopt new operating systems quickly and there is still this myth of waiting for the first service pack, to give Windows 2008 server a boost , it was released initially with service pack 1 included (just kidding here).

It will take a while until we see Microsoft’s next operating system Windows 7, but for those that can’t wait, some creative people have already posted some wallpapers :-). Well one thing we know for sure, it won’t be the wallpapers that will cause a potential delay of the final release.
