Heaven with (Microsoft) Seven

Microsoft Windows 7 (available pre-Holiday season, 2009) boasts many improvements, including advances in touch and handwriting recognition, support for virtual hard disks, improved performance on multi-core processors, and kernel improvements.

Functionality is improved with the incorporation of keyboard shortcuts. Holding down the Windows key and pressing the up arrow maximizes; pressing down the down arrow minimizes; pressing the left or right arrows snap the windows to the sides of the screen. Repeating the keyboard shortcut generally restores the window's previous size.

Library storage has also been drastically improved. Like other system, Windows 7 maintains special folders for document, image, music, and video storage. Now, however, when you fill up your hard drive – with music, for example, you don’t have to move your files to a new, larger location and re-route the music folder to the new location. Rather, the Library feature allows MP3s (or other files) to reside on any number of internal, external, and network locations while remaining in the Music folder. Even better, the new Federated Search allows the user to search libraries, allowing you to easily locate files across multiple locations. Sure makes it easier to store all of those holiday wish-lists, and just in time for the Holiday season 2009 release date!
