I have seen the long term — specifically Windows 7 (http://www.microsoftwindows7key.net/) Milestone 3 (Build 6780).I got a gander at the latest test build of Windows 7 (http://www.msoffice2007key.net/windows-7-key) briefly (courtesy of a source of mine) and was not allowed to take any screenshots. But it is real,Office 2010 Product Key (http://www.windows7-key.us/office-2010-key), it does exist and it is, indeed, in certain testers; hands inside and outside the company.From the quick glimpse I got of Milestone 3, it sounds like Bryant of AeroXperience was right on the money with his hypotheses about what;s changed in the latest internal test builds. The latest build seems quite stable. The Ribbon user interface from Office 2007 (http://www.key-windows-7.co.uk/office-2007-key) is now part of WordPad and Paint. Home Groups — the functionality formerly known in “Longhorn”/Vista as “Castle” — is part of the new Windows 7 (http://www.office2007-key.co.uk/windows-7-key) build.I also discovered that the “Graphical Console,” a k a PowerShell Version 2,Office 2010 Product Key (http://www.office-2007-key.com/office-2010-key), seems to be part of the latest pre-release Windows 7 (http://www.microsoftoffice2007key.net/windows-7-key) build.(Looks like Stephen Chapman over at the UX Evangelist site got to see Build 6780,Office 2007 Enterprise (http://www.key-windows-7.co.uk/office-2007-key), too, and has a lot more to say on Windows 7 (http://www.office2007-key.eu/windows-7-key);s Paint and WordPad.)From what admittedly little I had a chance to see,Office Professional 2010 (http://www.msoffice2010key.net/), Windows 7 (http://www.windows7key.ca/) does not look or feel like a major departure from Windows Vista.Sources say there isn;t an “M4″ currently on Microsoft;s Windows 7 (http://www.key-windows-7.co.uk/) schedule. Next up is likely some kind of preview build (which may or may not be distributed to those attending the Professional Developers Conference and/or Windows Hardware Engineering Conference in October and November,Microsoft Office 2010 Professional (http://www.office2007key.us/office-2010-key), respectively.) After that, a broadscale Beta 1, which should be feature-complete and pretty much set in stone, is expected for mid-December.Like my ZDNet blogging colleague Ed Bott said, it;s not impossible for Microsoft to hit a 2009 release for Windows 7 (http://www.office2010key.in/windows-7-key) if the first true beta doesn;t go out until December. Such a move would not be unprecedented.Do you think the Softies are going to get Windows 7 (http://www.msoffice2010key.com/windows-7-key) out the door in 2009, as they are hoping — and maybe even early enough to make it onto new machines in time for Holiday 2009 sales?
