I found this interesting article. After vista, there is supposed to be Windows Vienna. This site is in russian. I took the liberty of babelfishing it. hope they won't get mad.

Information about the future product Microsoft - Windows vienna!

Windows vienna (earlier than Blackcomb) - the code name of the new version of the operating system Windows, which must leave after Windows vista, supposedly in 2009.

Initially Blackcomb was planned after Windows xp. name Blackcomb it occurred from the name mountain-skiing health resort. However, it was decided to let out the intermediate version Windows - Longhorn (code name Windows vista), which was called its name in the honor of restaurant Longhorn Saloon, located approximately on halfway between Whistler (code name Windows xp) and Blackcomb.

Into composition of Windows vienna must enter some developments, excluded from Windows vista for the different reasons. This and WinFS, and much other. Windows vienna Will completely differ from all previous versions Windows, including Vista.

According to information, which placed in his bloge colleague Microsoft Robert skobl (Robert Scoble), in Vienna will be completely changed the user interface, to which we all privykli. Thus, most likely, will be removed by the menu "launching", which is used from times Windows 95. It is assumed, it will be substituted with something more convenient for the domestic and office users.

Among other changes is called the complete replacement of shell Explorer. The panel of tasks in the lower part of the screen also will disappear, and by it to the replacement will arrive the new concept of interface, based on a ten-year study of laboratory Vibe. In addition to this, in Windows vienna the users will for the first time see projects GroupBar and LayoutBar, which make it possible more effectively to start applications and to govern applications and documents, with which works the user.

Windows seven

For the designation of program Windows vienna is used also the code name Windows seven. Number Windows vienna in rule NT, in which it will be located, 7.0 (Windows 2000 - NT 5.0, Windows xp - NT 5.1, Windows server 2003 - NT 5.2, Windows vista - NT 6.0). 7 - seven (Engl.).

Development

Code name "Blackcomb" was entrusted to Windows nt 6.0, operating system, which is planned, it will become the following after Windows xp. Blackcomb it will be successor and table (working station Windows xp), so also servernoy working station (it is implied by Windows server 2003). At the end of 2001 release Blackcomb they planned in 2005, while during August it was declared about that which by the intermediate version will become Windows vista (code name "Longhorn" the name of bar at health resort Whistler Blackcomb), which will be the renovation of nucleus Windows nt shch..Kh. in the subsequent years Longhorn it were converted, as a result of the delay because of which were included many features of the obeshchannoy version, in Windows nt 6.0. The states of operating system, which was called name "Blackcomb", it was surrounded by confusion with some communications, that the plans with respect to marketing were copied, and others assert that it must be for servernoy Windows 6..x only improvement. Most likely, Windows blackcomb was rejected, since it was more complex than for its initial designation (i.e. for Windows nt 6.0). It is at present considered that successor Windows vista he will be, at present only are planned, both client and servernaya version will be Windows vienna and the current estimation end of 2009, although precise date or yr yet not they were devoted to publicity. News according to the forecasts of release date, are somewhere nearer to 2009.

Focus

First of all, a question stands not only about the quality of the cardinal revision of interface Windows, thinking about interaction with the computer. As an example, menu "launching" that introduced even into Windows 95, can be substituted with the "new interface", which allegedly in 1999 was outlined for the introduction in Windows vienna. Although mission Windows vista is concluded in being evolutionary release in "Vienna", it it would be oriented directly to the revolutionary way, in which the users interact with their PK. However, now situation changed. Reliz Windows vista, became basic, since then, when this operating system was released five years after release date Windows XP. Windows vienna it will become insignificant relizom, and at present it is planned, that it will be released two years after Windows vista.

On 9 February, 2007 of Ben fati from Microsoft assert that concentration the attention to the operating system only are studied, and can simply hint to some possible versions:

"we intend to examine the basic element of favorable technologies. It can be, this hypervisors (or virtual computer monitor), 4 I do not know that this such... Possibly, this is the new paradigm of user interface for the users ". Bill Gates, in the interview for "Newsweek", also expressed opinion about the fact that the following version Windows will be "more convenient for concentration and industriousness of user".

Other characteristics

Some other characteristic features, initially planned on Windows vista can be part of Vienn'y depending on that, when they be finished.

Vienna will also use sandboxed the approach, which was discussed in the course alphabeta testing (at the stage of development Longhorn). Entire unguided code they will be started in sandbox (sandbox) to the medium, where the access to the external peace, will be limited to operating system. Access to low-level soketam (raw sockets), just as direct access to the file system, the level of abstraction from the equipment (Hardware Abstraction Layer or HAL), the complete access to the address of memory, it will be forbidden. Entire access to the external applications, the files and the protocols they will be regulated by operating system and immediately react (theoretically). If this approach proves to be successful, then it moves large hope for safety, since with this approach to harmful program, practically it is not possible to cause any damage to system, if it is blocked inside the metaphorical "glass box". If everything is correct, this sandbox medium will know how to be adapted to the base of the code, which was written in its language. This will remove the majority of the problems, which appear as a result of the reverse compatability, when new operating system is started.

Bill Gates mentioned the everywhere injected line of instantaneous search. This system was included in Windows vista.

Reverse compatability

Microsoft she stated that Vienna will be accessible both in the 32-bit and 64- discharge versions (this it is done for the softening of the passage of branch from the 32-bit to the 64- discharge calculations). In Vienna Server is planned the support only of 64- bit servernykh systems. As the continuation of compatability from the 32- bits, but also 16- bit Windows and Ms- pill box - application not will be supported, as this occurred to be in the 64- discharge versions Windows xp and Windows server 2003. However, Pavel turrott asserts in his Supersite for Windows, which according to graph Microsoft in x64 Windows vienna, will be only in the 64- discharge version.

I suggest that you make your grandmother leave the room before you go to the site though, since they are really taking advantage of the adult ads.

After all the delays there was with Vista, I'll be really surprised if Microsoft's next OS is publicly released as early as 2009.

Two good bits of news in this article:

"...in Vienna will be completely changed the user interface, to which we all privykli."
A good point. I think we all currently privykli to the user interface right?

Well I certainly do.

And...
"...new concept of interface, based on a ten-year study of laboratory Vibe"
This is excellent news as current interface problems are due primarily the them being based on the previous longest study into laboratory Vibe which went on for only 2 and a half years.
