Tonight Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates presented the keynote address here at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. WinCustomize.com is there in the press room blogging live from the event right now!
Windows Vista as well as gives a vision on how personal computing technology will go in the future.
During his demo, Mr. Gates was able to integrate his information and data seamlessly across a cell phone, tablet PC, and his desktop PC that was connected to a 40 inch monitor that divided the display into 3 work areas.
During the upcoming announcements, Microsoft showed up the new Windows Media Player which is a lot cleaner than previous versions. The next Windows Vista explorer provides a host of useful features for modifying data such as being able to crop and do basic editing on images without having to load a graphics editing package.
Internet Explorer 7 was shown off with its Firefox-like tabs but with some very interesting twists.
Much of the push on Windows Vista so far has highlighted a cleaner, faster, more polished look combined with a heavily revamped plumbing underneath. GDI and the myriad of vulnerable networking APIs are gone and replaced with a new architecture.
Those who were worried that Vista was just Windows XP with a new look have nothing to fear, it's a very definite change for better.
