Sneak Peek: Windows 7

Microsoft lifts the curtain on Vista’s successor.

It might seem like Microsoft day here at Neonpunch, but even though the next version of the Windows OS – called simply Windows 7 – isn’t hitting Hong Kong until next year, there were some screen shots and reveals of some of the cool new features that we wanted to share with you via Webmonkey:

The user interface enhancements to the Windows 7 desktop are largely intuitive, and they go a long way toward making the OS easier to use. There’s an integrated desktop search tool that learns the more you use it, bringing your most frequent queries to the top of the list. The new Windows Taskbar, which incidentally looks and behaves a lot like the Mac OS X dock, is more customizable. Users can drag and reorder the program icons. The icons are bigger, and hovering over an icon shows a live thumbnail preview of the window. Click on a Taskbar icon and a list of choices specific to that program pops up (Microsoft calls these Jump Lists).

And the adaptly titled “7 Coolest Features of Windows 7″ feature is here for you to see a new taskbar, jump lists, unified search and there heavy lifting from OS X the Aero interface. Read that here.
