Microsoft Presents ‘Touch Windows’

It looks like Microsoft is on its way to give some special look and feel to their upcoming Windows version !  Apart from adding new features, they should concentrate on having patches for existing problems too. don't you think 

Microsoft's next OS will come with a touch screen to replace the existing mouse ! This will be a nice feature, replacing the old classic mouse. This touch screen will bring in more interactivity for the user,making him feel good ..maybe..

Touch Screen Demo :

 

Scheduled to be released in 2010, the new touch screen lets users enlarge and shrink photos, trace routes on maps, paint pictures or play the piano ( as seen in the video )..

BBC reports "When challenged as to who would get to market first with a new touch screen device, Microsoft or Apple, Mr Ballmer said it was not much of an issue. "We'll sell 290 million PCs and Apple will sell 10 million PCs "

So lets wait and watch how far this multi-touch Windows 7 will be successful !
