Sophie wanted a PC with a really cool touchscreen. Windows and Sony said, Well build it. You come to Tokyo to approve it. She did.

  • This is just silly - what does the hardware have to do with the OS ??

    I have had touch screen slates running XP for years.

    The rest of it is just a fancy application.

  • @onanidaily There's a huge difference between running on a touch screen and supporting touch. Here's an in-depth MSDN blog post about the Windows 7 touch support and the new changes:

  • @WindowsVideos This is the kind of response I would expect from a Microsoft minion. The blog link you provided contains nothing more than an in-depth text version of this propaganda commercial.

    I have written applications for non-digitizing touch screen kiosks running Windows 98SE and beyond. Basically you have the hardware, driver, and application. The OS has very little to do with it.

    Refute my statements if you must but this just looks like an example of Microsoft hyperbole.

  • @onanidaily In addition to window management and UI which have been improved for touch, it goes back to the difference between touch and supporting touch. Windows 7 has lots of built-in features that help applications develop with touch by doing the heavy lifting. Window messages like WM_GESTURE and WM_TOUCH are great examples of that.

    It's not to say that touch wasn't possible before Windows 7 came along, just that Windows 7 helps support developers and users as touch applications expand.
