Windows 7 will feature superior application compatibility over Windows Vista, according to a Microsoft announcement issued on Monday. A Microsoft team has so far found 30 applications that will work on Windows 7, even though those applications failed to work on the older Vista operating system.
Those positive results constitute "rescuing" applications, according to a post on Microsoft's Engineering Windows 7 blog. The Microsoft team didn't explain why those rescued applications now work on the newer OS.
