Looks like windows 7 is just going to be vista in disguise.

I see ms putting all their chips on touch screen displays. Personally, I don't see touch screens being the wave of the future microsoft and startrek makes them out to be. I could see people getting these motion sensing chips that they've been putting in apple laptops and wii remotes in peoples hands. Control a display with the wave of your hand or the twitch of a finger. Hell they're already using these implanted RDIF chips as id for dogs and id and creditcards for people.
