With less than two years to go before it ships, Microsoft has started revealing new details about the next major release of Windows ? or at least revealing what will not be new.
In a posting Tuesday on the Windows Vista Team Blog, Chris Flores, a director on the Windows Client communications team, said that the successor to Vista ? codenamed "Windows 7" ? will not be all that much different from its predecessor.
"The long-term architectural investments we introduced in Windows Vista and then refined for Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008 will carry forward in Windows 7," Flores said.
