Personally, I think the biggest feature for developers in Windows 7 is the Sensor API (<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd318953" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd318953</a>%28VS.85%29.aspx). I think this will take a couple of years to unfold. However, I think once hardware and software developers take advantage of these APIs we will see some really innovative things emerge.<br /><br />Chad Campbell https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_7573807c-29b5-4452-882c-79f0d9901952 [email protected] (Chad Campbell) https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_7573807c-29b5-4452-882c-79f0d9901952 Fri, 30 Jan 2009 09:58:46 -1100 Chad Campbell https://silverlighthack.com/pingback.axd https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_7573807c-29b5-4452-882c-79f0d9901952 https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_7573807c-29b5-4452-882c-79f0d9901952#comment https://silverlighthack.com/syndication.axd?post=7573807c-29b5-4452-882c-79f0d9901952 Pingback from alvinashcraft.com<br /><br />Dew Drop - February 2, 2009 | Alvin Ashcraft's Morning Dew https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_fa0e4014-aa05-45d4-a5ea-9a0da2b60f4b [email protected] (alvinashcraft.com) https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_fa0e4014-aa05-45d4-a5ea-9a0da2b60f4b Fri, 30 Jan 2009 16:09:48 -1100 alvinashcraft.com https://silverlighthack.com/pingback.axd https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_fa0e4014-aa05-45d4-a5ea-9a0da2b60f4b https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_fa0e4014-aa05-45d4-a5ea-9a0da2b60f4b#comment https://silverlighthack.com/syndication.axd?post=fa0e4014-aa05-45d4-a5ea-9a0da2b60f4b And the population will spend money to upgrade? in this economy?

I will place it in the other for two reasons. Like you mention it is probably not going to take off for a while. My reason: Vista also promised to revolutionize speech recognition...remember those Vista speech demos ending in horrible failure. We'll see how they do with implementing this <img src="/editors/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" class="flag" alt="Smile" /><br /><br />@realityhits,<br /><br />You are exactly correct on this. I think they should give it away (at least for people that bought Vista).<br /><br /> https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_51ce688e-8a89-4647-9180-fc985de8e417 [email protected] (Bart Czernicki) https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_51ce688e-8a89-4647-9180-fc985de8e417 Fri, 30 Jan 2009 19:06:07 -1100 Bart Czernicki https://silverlighthack.com/pingback.axd https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_51ce688e-8a89-4647-9180-fc985de8e417 https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_51ce688e-8a89-4647-9180-fc985de8e417#comment https://silverlighthack.com/syndication.axd?post=51ce688e-8a89-4647-9180-fc985de8e417 Pingback from smehrozalam.wordpress.com<br /><br />A nice overview of Windows 7 « Mehroz�s Experiments https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_f6dd6eef-0378-42ce-9d17-a9be60a82a5e [email protected] (smehrozalam.wordpress.com) https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_f6dd6eef-0378-42ce-9d17-a9be60a82a5e Sat, 31 Jan 2009 11:16:17 -1100 smehrozalam.wordpress.com https://silverlighthack.com/pingback.axd https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_f6dd6eef-0378-42ce-9d17-a9be60a82a5e https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_f6dd6eef-0378-42ce-9d17-a9be60a82a5e#comment https://silverlighthack.com/syndication.axd?post=f6dd6eef-0378-42ce-9d17-a9be60a82a5e thanks for sharing this info... https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_f03e2db2-4a32-4266-81a3-b49728a7f519 [email protected] (Dubai Job Vacancy) https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_f03e2db2-4a32-4266-81a3-b49728a7f519 Sat, 31 Jan 2009 20:09:26 -1100 Dubai Job Vacancy https://silverlighthack.com/pingback.axd https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_f03e2db2-4a32-4266-81a3-b49728a7f519 https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_f03e2db2-4a32-4266-81a3-b49728a7f519#comment https://silverlighthack.com/syndication.axd?post=f03e2db2-4a32-4266-81a3-b49728a7f519 Nice info breakdown.I think windows 7 is worth the upgrade! https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_8054eddd-5ae2-4819-8b26-27890f505c4f [email protected] (Fredrick) https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_8054eddd-5ae2-4819-8b26-27890f505c4f Fri, 20 Feb 2009 01:56:31 -1100 Fredrick https://silverlighthack.com/pingback.axd https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_8054eddd-5ae2-4819-8b26-27890f505c4f https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_8054eddd-5ae2-4819-8b26-27890f505c4f#comment https://silverlighthack.com/syndication.axd?post=8054eddd-5ae2-4819-8b26-27890f505c4f Pingback from answerspluto.com<br /><br />list of urls - 5 « Answers Pluto https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_33d4b895-f975-4989-9f4b-3384c428d773 [email protected] (answerspluto.com) https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_33d4b895-f975-4989-9f4b-3384c428d773 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 04:43:19 -1100 answerspluto.com https://silverlighthack.com/pingback.axd https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_33d4b895-f975-4989-9f4b-3384c428d773 https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_33d4b895-f975-4989-9f4b-3384c428d773#comment https://silverlighthack.com/syndication.axd?post=33d4b895-f975-4989-9f4b-3384c428d773 I installed free version of windows 7 <a href="http://www.picktorrent.com/torrents/99/windows-7/" rel="nofollow">http://www.picktorrent.com/torrents/99/windows-7/</a> .

Here you can see how IIS left the underdog position for the champion seat: <a href="http://trustleap.com/" rel="nofollow">http://trustleap.com/</a> As usual, champions are challenged, and IIS has to face a newcomer which works faster in user-mode than IIS 7.0 in kernel-mode (the equivalent of a sprint with the feet attached). Time will tell how IIS will cope with this issue, but one has to recognize that Microsoft has invested heavily in this area -with tangible results this time. https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_7097babd-9e70-4c38-84ed-ebe0ea818685 [email protected] (Pierre) https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_7097babd-9e70-4c38-84ed-ebe0ea818685 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 02:53:34 -1100 Pierre https://silverlighthack.com/pingback.axd https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_7097babd-9e70-4c38-84ed-ebe0ea818685 https://silverlighthack.com/post/2009/02/01/Windows-7-Should-a-developer-invest-in-the-upcoming-OS.aspx#id_7097babd-9e70-4c38-84ed-ebe0ea818685#comment https://silverlighthack.com/syndication.axd?post=7097babd-9e70-4c38-84ed-ebe0ea818685
