Microsoft talks about MinWin, the base for future operating systems
Software giant Microsoft has revealed that they are working on redoing the core kernel of the Windows OS to make it smaller as mobile devices become more essential in daily life.
This kernel is likely to become the base of the Windows 7 which would succeed Vista in the coming years.
This project has been named MinWin.
Eric Traut talked about this project: “A lot of people think of Windows as this large, bloated operating system, and that’s maybe a fair characterization, I have to admit. But at its core, the kernel, and the components that make up the very core of the operating system, is actually pretty streamlined.”
Microsoft has already stated that they aim to have a successor ready for the Vista OS by 2010.
