Microsoft Corp., in a recent press conference, said Windows 7 is complete. Reps for the company also said that they have sent the final code for its next computer operating system to manufacturers Wednesday, and said it’s still on track for its launch this year.
Google Inc. announced that they are working on a new operating system for inexpensive computers in an attempt to lessen Microsoft’s longstanding control over the OS war.
Microsoft will give a select group of testers an early peek to their Office 2010 software, the follow-up to the successful 2007 version. However, they will be keeping a key development by holding free Web-based versions of programs such as MS Word and MS Excel under wraps a little while longer. This preview indicates that the software is still on track for release in the early part of next year.
After all of the fuzz about their next operating system, Microsoft finally announced that Windows 7 will be on sale come October 22 of this year. This after much talks about the new OS have been circulated all over the Web, including a trial version released early this year.
The announcement came after a very long wait because of some “minor” adjustments done to the software.
