Wow, is this the future version of Windows… so called Windows 7? To me, it looks really revolutionary much like how Apple iPhone revolutionized how a mobile phone should look and work. Now, many mobile phone makers are producing iPhone competitors, especially HTC and LG models.

Earlier last week, at the D6 conference Ballmer demonstrated the multitouch interface of Windows 7 which will ship to customers in late 2009.

The demo showed an app for organizing photos, and a Windows Paint app that you can draw with all your fingers at once. Also, a digital globe app, where the two-handed interface makes good sense. What’s really amazing is a piano app, on which you can now play chords using your fingers on the multitouch screen!

Anyway, do you think Microsoft is copying Apple this time? Whatever it is, I truly hope Windows 7 will be better, not like Windows Vista which looks superb but performs badly. :)
