Ballmer and Gates Unveil Windows 7
iPhone-style multi-touch support confirmed for the next version of Windows
At the Wall Street Journal’s D conference, Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer offered a first tantalizing look at Windows 7—the next version of Windows. We haven’t seen the full UI yet, just glimpses of future functionality, including iPhone-style multi-touch control and a radial menu.
The multi-touch functionality that Ballmer and Gates demoed on a Dell Latitude XT laptop looked remarkably similar to the Microsoft Surface, the tabletop computer Microsoft is developing for information kiosks and hotel lobbies. In addition to a Surface-esque photo-management app, they demoed an onscreen piano, a multi-touch paint app, and an impressive mapping app, which featured radial menus.
Radial menus are essentially mouse gestures that use visual guides to help the user navigate more complex menus. Until now, we haven’t seen this power-user feature in mainstream apps, aside from a few games and browser plugins. It’s much too early to start judging Windows 7—rumor is, it will be released in late 2009 or early 2010, at the soonest—but we’re happy to see anything new from Microsoft. -WS
Windows 7’s radial menus will take the place of nested drop-down menus.
