The legacy of Windows 7 - last of a breed?
Is Windows 7 the last version of a standard Windows GUI/system? This basic configuration has been with us since Win3.1. Even OS/2 copied the look and feel of the Windows operating system.
I mean, the Start button and the Start menu were standard for years: You can click on Start, w/One Click, and see an overview of your computer. In Win7, the desktop IS Windows. There ain't no other.
It may be that we will look back on Windows 7 in the future with nostalgia and fondness. As it may be the very last version of a very familiar user interface- that might forever be changed with the onset of Windows 8.
