There has always been rumors about anything that is supposed to happen in a near future and the same thing happened with Windows 7, the upcoming operating system from Microsoft. Saddening for hardcore windows fans that Windows 7 won’t be available until 2010 but the ‘baby Windows 7’ has already started taking shape in the mysterious Microsoft Labs. Obvious enough that the back-end will be taken care of first rather than the UI, it seems that Gates’ minions have been working hard to put the pieces together and they have managed to give Windows 7 a new look. Not too different from Windows Vista’s UI but there are 100% chances of a complete makeover as these screen-shots are from Pre-Beta Builds. Have a look.

Love it or hate it, but these are the results of the Microsoft’s ‘creative’ team and the users will have to live with it.
