    Windows 7 feels like it just arrived. Let's wait a couple of years before it becomes boring then talk about a new OS

    I'm fairly certain most of us caught that.

    As for Windows 8, bring it on! Those of you who don't want to see a new OS for a few years. Thats your opinion and I respect it, my opinion is this. If you don't want to dish out the money for an OS every time a new one comes out, then don't! Don't complain about MS trying to make progress. :)

    me too
    + me 3


    As for the job itself, if you wanted a chance - contact that chap that recently left the Midori team after 11 or so months - find out what direction he wanted to take and then offer the opposite in your resume
    + me 4, this could go on for about 540 times lol.

    uh yeah, guess it was obvious,,,, but I will say this.

    I too am all for windows advancement. But, I also think that a 3 to 5 year turn around is a short time frame for an OS. I am not sure of what changes could be made that would be so drastic that they could not be implemented with a Service Pack or Plus pack of some kind.

    I thought that the Ultimate Extras would have been a good idea. Would be good if they pushed out pre-gold releases that way for testing and allow us to run apps through their paces before full gold RTM.

    Anyway, I think Win 8 will be nice, but they really should focus on more customization ability for the end user, as well as remove a ton of the backward compatibility if they decide to release it any time soon.

    But I don't expect to see Win 8 till between late 2012 to 2014.

    But, by then, no one will have any money to purchase it.
    So, maybe we will see the free ad supported windows Home release.

    Yeah give Windows 7 time to soak in and I don't see what fixes are needed.

    A new operating system wouldn't just bring fixes. It'd also (likely) bring new features, new GUI, etc.
