Windows 7 could be ready by Spring 2009

MFST might have a new OS by this spring.

Rumors are popping up on some tech websites
about the Release Candidates no longer being uh... released.

Windows 7 Client Software Logo Program MSFT is has prepared their
new logo for developers:


"Overview
The Windows platform has a broad ecosystem of products and partners that supports the platform. Displaying the Windows logo on your product represents a relationship and a shared commitment to quality between Microsoft and your company. Customers trust that seeing the Windows brand on your product ensures that it meets compatibility standards and performs well on the Windows platform.

The Windows 7 Software Logo program is made up of policies and requirements that help ensure logo’d applications are easy to install and reliable on PCs running Windows 7.

The purpose of this document is to outline the technical requirements and eligibility qualifications an application must meet in order to participate in the Windows 7 Client Software Logo Program."
