We all read the news that Windows 7 is expected in late 2009 and that first milestone releases are send out to partners for testing purposes. Microsoft is very secretive about features and layout of the Windows Vista successor and does not publish any information regarding the new operating system.
Since the milestone 1 release has been out two forum posts with information have emerged. One was deleted after a short period of time but the cached version remains. The tester was not really happy with Windows 7 and expressed those feelings explicitly.
The second appearance was on a Chinese forum were Windows 7 Screenshots were posted. Until now no one was able to verify this images but they could be legit after all. They do look terribly like Windows Vista which is understandable for such an early build. Let us all hope and prey that Microsoft will not concentrate on more eye candy in Windows 7.

So it’s windows vista with a few bolt ons then

Hehe, Vista sucks, so they claim its good, but they make 7 silently very fast ;]
It’s Windows 7, but the about dialog still says 6.1. Right.
Fake. It’s exactly like windows vista.
Not saying these are real, but Vista looked a lot like XP when it in alpha too. Regardless, i’m sure they haven’t nailed down the visual direction of this version this early into the game.
Don’t forget that Windows 7 is still in development. By the time the manufactures ship out Vienna, it will actually be in build 7.0, not 6.1
From the way things are looking, Microsoft is in for a long year. This doesn’t look anywhere near something I’d like to buy. It reminds me too much of Vista, and I haven’t exactly had the best time with Vista… However, since they do have another year to get things right, I’m going to give them the benefit of the doubt and hope things are going to go well. This does seem like Microsoft’s last chance to fix things, so “Good luck Microsoft. Don’t make me move to Leopard.”
Still looks a lot Vista…
Umm,..
It’s Just Windows Shitsta with SP7.
