“In an email to WinVistaClub, the Vole reportedly stated that Windows 7 is still in the planning stage and will take approximately three years to develop.About three years to develop. Hmm. So, what with its planning – which is not yet completed, it seems – plus internal testing and pre-release user testing, that means that the new, hopefully vastly improved Windows 7 won’t appear until at least 2011, at the earliest.”

Relax, it was just a dream
For anyone who went into shock over the rumours that Windows 7 might be released next year, it is safe to come out now. The Inquirer looked into it and found some very convincing evidence that we won’t see Windows 7 until some time after the end of the Mayan Calender. Any correlation between those two dates are just speculation at this time.
