The capture (enlarged) from Reuters was last Tuesday, when the PDC 2008 is showing that the first beta of the new operating system of Windows, called Windows 7. In the photo can be seen as a grip Asus EEA, I would say that EEA 1000 using Windows 7 operating system.

All this in a normal ultraportable with 1GB of RAM and a 1.6GHz Intel Atom. There is something that calls me a lot of attention, the first is that Microsoft has a particular and reasonable appreciation for the ultraportable, who was going to tell them that they would continue selling licenses for Windows XP 7 years after its launch.

But Windows XP can not take more, much as we do not like it, Windows Vista is available for ultraporatiles and soon Windows 7 … Microsoft Draw some ultra-light version of Windows 7 for these machines? If Microsoft is able to launch 8 versions of Windows Vista and none sold well, how is not going to be able to launch a lighter version for ultraportable?
