Microsoft Windows 7 in development

Windows 7 is reportedly the code name for Microsoft's next OS. Bill Gates while in Japan made a comment about Vista's successor stating that "…take less memory, be more efficient, and have lots more connections up to the mobile phone." He also said, "if you have two personal computers, your files automatically are synchronized between them, so you won't have a lot of work to move that data back and forth."

              Some potential new features could be an automated backup feature not unlike Apple's Time Machine, a networking group called "Home Group" which would make it much easier to share pictures, videos, music, documents and printers.
