I’ve been a windows user for the past 14 years and I already tried all the windows operating system released by Microsoft form windows 3.x, Windows 95, 98, Me, 2000, XP, 2003, and Windows vista, and I myself fairly satisfied how Microsoft revolutionized its operating system.
Windows Vista that was released last Nov. 2006 brought as some new end-user features, including its aero graphical user interface and visual style improved searching features, new multimedia creation tools such as Windows DVD Maker, and redesigned networking, audio, print, and display sub-systems.
This year 2009 Microsoft finally releases its beta version of its new Windows Operating System known as Windows 7 (codename: Blackcomb and Vienna). So many windows users were asking, what are those great end-user features that we could get on Windows 7?
Windows 7 new and changed features
Microsoft Windows 7 includes a number of new great features, such as advances in touch, handwriting, speech, and recognition, improved performance on multi-core processors, support fast boot performance, for virtual hard disks, and improvements on its hybrid kernel. Another noticeable performance is on the speed, compared to windows vista windows 7 is much faster.
The biggest innovation that I have seen is on the taskbar where the Quick Launch toolbar has been merged with the task buttons to create an enhanced taskbar or what Microsoft refers to as the "Superbar". This enhanced taskbar also enables the Jump Lists feature to allow easy access to common tasks.
Big break for developers, Windows 7 delivers a new networking API with support for building SOAP based web services in native code (as opposed to .NET based WCF web services), new features to shorten application install times, reduced UAC prompts, simplified development of installation packages, and improved globalization support through a new Extended Linguistic Services API.
