This is pretty interesting because usually Microsoft operating cycle to release one of their new operating systems is usually 5-6 years. But with Windows 7, or Milestone, the release of a new operating system will only be about 3 years, after they released Microsoft Vista. What I see from this article is that Microsoft is trying to go back to an operating system that favors more functionality than form and more efficiency than looks. It reminds me of their Windows 98 days when people claim they could boot their computer to the desktop in only 25-30 seconds.
So far they are released release candidates or betas for select users to try out the new operating system. The final version of Windows 7 is scheduled to be released in 2010.

Hopefully they will focus more on making the Windows interface more simplistic and user friendly then graphically intensive like Windows Vista.
