Windows 7 Press

…the new Windows is not only the best operating system that Microsoft has ever produced. It is arguably the fastest, most intuitive, and most useful consumer desktop OS on the market today

- Farhad Manjoo, Slate

Looks like 7 is a lucky number after all.

- David Pogue, New York Times

Windows 7 is darn good…very good. - Yobie Benjamin, San Francisco Chronicle

Windows 7 Momentum

Windows 7 has broken the 4% market share barrier in less than three weeks, a mark that took Windows Vista five months to reach…

-Computerworld

According to NPD’s weekly tracking service, Windows 7 software unit sales in the U.S. were 234 percent higher than Vista’s first few days of sales.

-NPD Group, Inc.

Device Stage Press

Device Stage …It was the ultimate in Plug and Play. The demo showed how easy it was to import pictures once the camera was connected

- Samara Lynn, ChannelWeb

The new Device Stage makes managing peripherals significantly easier…

- Seth Rosenblatt, CNET

Great…when supported

Or take the new Device Stage screen. When you connect a gadget to your PC, you’re supposed to see its actual photograph, model name and list of relevant features. But until all the gadget makers get on board, you sometimes see only generic icons here -David Pogue, New York Times

Device Stage Gadget Interface is Gorgeous (When Supported!)

-Wilson Rothman, Gizmodo
