Default Re: Windows 7

Another technical forum explained that Windows 7 will be backwards-compatible with older programs by running a virtual machine for them. This is faster than the curent method of simply making the entire OS backwards compatible.

Instead of having to load the library of every possible obsolete program, Windows 7 will simply shuttle them to a virtual machine, making the OS much faster.
