Welcome to Windows 7 News!

On this new site I will tracking all the news and rumours concerning Microsoft Windows 7 which is expected to replace Windows Vista in 2010. Windows 7 (previously called Windows Vienna) is expected to be a complete re-write of the existing XP/Vista code and structure, which can be traced all the way back to the Start Menu, Taskbar and Explorer shell introduced by Windows 95.

Microsoft’s plans for Windows 7 are currently a very closely guarded secret, which is not surprising as they are still trying to drum up support for Windows Vista:

“The launch of Windows Vista was an incredibly exciting moment for our customers and partners around the world, and the company is focused on the value Windows Vista will bring to people today,” Kevin Kutz, a Director in the Windows Client group at Microsoft said on February 13, 2007. “We are not giving official guidance to the public yet about the next version of Windows, other than that we’re working on it. When we are ready, we will provide updates.”

When Microsoft do start to get chatty about Windows 7, we’ll be here to keep you updated!
