During a speech for the Inter-American Development Bank, Gates said, "Sometime in the next year or so we will have a new version. [of the Vista OS]"
It is unclear if Gates meant the full commercial rollout of the new OS or just a beta but either way it seems development is moving swiftly. Microsoft has already sent a test version of Windows 7 to the US government. Previously, Microsoft reported that Windows 7 was coming at the earliest in 2010.
Continuing on, Gates talked out about his excitement for the upcoming operating system. "I'm super-enthused about what it will do in lots of ways."
There is still no word on what new features will be added, but we will keep you updated.
