Microsoft keynote: Windows, Natal, Media Room 2.0, and thats all

[nokiaxion]

Hey

I was wondering what everyone thought about Microsoft's keynote.

Kinda weak IMO. The only thing that made me :) a bit was that the guy said that games were coming out FIRST on the Xbox 360 so other games might arrive on the PC. Natal looks good also and I wonder how people will hack it to make it work on PC.

Besides that.............thats about it.

That was one BORING ass keynote. I love the fact how for the first half he had to show us the stuff you can do in windows 7. For christ sake the average joe does not watch this keynote. The computer enthusiast does, and they already know all that stuff. If that is going to be Microsoft's and hp's best job at a tablet then no matter what apple releases they are going to be raping Microsoft hardcore.

Anticlimactic and boring. All that Windows 7 stuff was just not needed.

I read that ballmer was supposed to announce a new tablet "weeks before apple anounces theirs"... made by hp, and such.

none of that?

Actually looks kinda thick. i wonder how thick the apple oversized ipod touch will be. i bet it'll look better at least.

It appears to be about 1.4 cm thick, estimated from the diameter of the presumed headphone jack at 3.5 mm.

They could have excited us by announcing some service pack 1 info. And please let's not get started on whether Windows 7 needs a SP or not.

Too early to release a SP.
