I only saw a five-minute excerpt on Digg, but it looks like it has some interesting new features.

I don't have speakers on my work pc so I couldn't hear what he was talking about but from what I was watching it didn't look too impressive. Looks like a linux build with a rather unnecessary modification to the application bar.

I'm more curious to see what the "big features" of Windows 7 are going to be. It seems like this stuff could be rolled out in a service pack or something.

Edit: Here's a good list: http://www.winsupersite.com/faq/windows_7.asp Scroll down to: Q: What features will be included in Windows 7?

Some of that actually sounds pretty cool!

You don't just add stuff to a SP because the GUI is the same as a previous OS... The GUI is one small thing that an OS has under the hood.

Did anyone else watch the whole thing? If you just want to see things in action, watch 21:20-39:45. It definitely looks promising.
