At today’s TechEd, Microsoft revealed that Windows 7 will be available “by the holiday period” (so by Xmas); this was their first public announcement that Windows 7 will be with us in 2009, rather than early 2010.
Office 2010 Technical Preview Program
Microsoft TechEd 2009 today saw the official launch of the Office 2010 Technical Preview program; it’s invitation only but you can add yourself to the waiting list here. I did earlier so hopefully I’ll get the chance to have an early look at the new version of some of my favourite apps 
To get more of a feel for what’s coming, check out:

Cheers to Steve Clayton for the waiting list link too!
