While I sustain the exact opposite point of view from yours, I would never dare to call someone a "retard" just for not agreeing with me.
"First, why would a "Chinese source" have a "leak" of an operating system being developed in America?" did you even read what the other article says about Windows 7? THEY SENT THE OS TO ASIAN HARDWARE MANUFACTURERS FOR TESTING. There's your answer, satisfied?
I will comment only on this one, because the comments prior to this simply don't deserve attention:" Most, if not all Windows OSes have had a codename during development. It is already known as blackcomb, and supposedly will be publicly released as Vienna, so why would they call it Windows 7 also, when they haven't used versions since the early 90's?" You should check your facts before posting. "Blackcomb" as a code-name has been dropped for a long time (

"As people have already commented, it pretty much looks like a copy paste of Vista, and it is. " because you say so? Read the comment I posted earlier and you'll find your answer on this one too. It's an early build of the OS and it's normal to have the same looks as Vista. For now.
"It will probably fool the Chinese, as I suspect not many are using computers, or if they are that they have old machines running Windows 98 or XP and so don't have any experience of what Vista is like, so they wouldn't know if the screenshot was Vista or whatever." for that comment I would simply throw you out of this site, just to put you out of your misery. Have you ever vistited China yourself? Do you know that Microsoft has the second most important R&D (research and development for you...) department in Shanghai, after the one in Redmond?
All in all, your post is simply insulting not only for those who disagree with you but for everyone with a bit of unbiased reason.
