Have you been hearing what's coming next from MS?

Vista and Office 2007 sucked.

And now the lady who designed that horrible ribbon toolbar for Office 2007 will be helping make the UI for windows' next OS - "Windows 7".

Either sticking w/ XP and office '97 forever or switching to OS X or Linux after 3-5 years. Microsoft is forcing it's users to quit! This may force windows from being the default OS for OEMs and speed up the development of Linux... can't wait
