Pure hype.

Win7 is using nearly the same exact kernel as Vista.

It’s basically Vista with more refinements and polish.

A tremendous amount of code has been refined because Microsoft wants Windows 7 to work great on netbooks
Only XP is deployed on netbooks. Vista is too kludgey. This is extremely embarrassing to Balmer, Gates et al

Plus Microsoft will demand a few bucks more from netbook manufacturers for Windows7 licenses rather than XP

Windows 7 is this season's shade of lipstick on Windows NT
