Yesterday (Oct 27,2008) Microsoft unveiled details of two knew operating systems.
Currently the most commonly used Microsoft Operating Systems are Windows XP and Windows Vista. Although frequently cirticized, often by those who've never used it, Vista is actually a very stable rich environment in which to work, particularly when used with up to date machines.
Nevertheless, Microsoft has decided to press ahead with successors for Vista. In late 2009, Windows 7 will be released. It will be much like Vista. Around the same time Microsoft will release Windows Azure, an operating system that lives in Microsoft servers and not in ur Computer. This is called "Cloud Computing". The "Cloud" being the Internet. Basically this means that you won't need an operating system or programs: they will all live in the "Cloud".
Whether this works out or not remains to be seen. However, many companies are already trying this, both with Microsoft and with Google products.
"Cloud Computing" is one of the most used technology buzz words at present.
