Windows 7 on the (Too) Fast Track | |
|

Is Microsoft moving too fast with Windows 7? That's the complaint coming from some members of the technical beta program. According to these folks, Microsoft isn't taking their feedback seriously, even when filed through their private beta tester feedback channels.

| It's not moving too fast..it's moving without incorporating beta feedback..it's moving without changing at all. It was sort of done when the beta started. |

| Yeah It's vista mark 2 so doesn't need any beta feedback or bug reports! |

the article is based upon the false premise that feedback only applies to the Windows 7 BETA, and not the entire history of things Windows customers have expressed a need for.
Over a billion people use Windows and a great many needs and requirements develop over very long periods of time. For example, desktop deployment features that are so much more evolved in Windows 7 - and on the con/pro-sumer side, online, digital anytime upgrades... these areas are huge, but get no play whatever. It is very naive, I think, to view the development process in the very limited context of: "They're not listening to what I want now..." Silly... Of course they are, but there is a balance that has to be maintained and they are being very conservative - with a clear focus on performance, security, and reliability from day one of launch - much like Intel's Tick and Tock analogy - Vista was a Tick - 7 is a tock. |

| I quote one of my oldest friends. Give me examples. Are there substantive problems that need to be fixed? What are they? |
