I'd like to jump onto 7 as much as everbody else, but the only concrete news I can count on is Vista SP2 to be out pretty soon.

RC1 is pretty early...then RC2, maybe RC3....]]>Mar 26th 2009 9:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/Mar 26th 2009 9:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/

Logo programs are just such a corporate way to handle this. Advertise the box on the box you just bought. What would really help the consumer would be if Microsoft would get ahold of its OEM program and tell them not to ship touch displays that don't meet the requirements.

But then, what would Microsoft do with the sticker machine they just bought? Might as well use it.]]>Mar 26th 2009 12:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/
I love XP, it's awesome and I have had only minor issues wirth installing hardware with it. I haven't tried Windows 2000 or Vista. Windows 98 was what Windows 95 was supposed to be. Windows 95 disapointed terribly, and Windows 3.x was the shitiest OS I have used... Microsoft Windows has proven itself to be a terrible OS over the yeras, and I think the only reason it is supported these days is that every company out there has spent their money on MS shit... It's not widely accepted because it is good, but rather because there is huge PR behind it.

I have used other OSes as well. Linuix, BeOS, Qnx, and others. All of them had unique features, but lacked the support of OS X and Windows.

Windows has won the OS war only because companies have invested so much in hardware and software already, not because it is worth the money...]]>Mar 26th 2009 9:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/Mar 26th 2009 9:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/Mar 26th 2009 9:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/Mar 26th 2009 10:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/26/windows-7-touch-logo-program-detailed-release-candidate-at-the/

Windows XP, well enough has been said regarding XP. It's 2009 and manufactures are still going for it.

What I meant is that touch screen LCDs being standardised to all computers i.e. your computer at home. So in a few years time I hope that every computer the manufacturers are selling will come equipped with touch screen as standard without an increase in cost.
