A possible Vista successor: Now blurry and boring.

Billy boy let slip that Windows 7 AKA Windows Vista# will launch “next year” and explained that XP will be phased out for everything except low-cost PCs in some markets. Is he telling the truth?

You can’t spring two major UI overhauls on people that quickly, right? Comments?
