Dear Microsoft

windows7_multiple

Dear Microsoft, Windows 7 is pretty good, it might even make up for the Vista cock-up launch. I’m even writing this on the Windows 7 beta. But according to Gizmodo you’re going to make five(!) versions of Windows 7… YOU DON’T NEED FIVE VERSIONS!!!  You need one! Keep it simple! Don’t confuse people more than you have to.

So pretty please, with sugar on top: Make one version of Windows 7! Thanks

Found this really cool installation via NRK Beta. 64 mirrors on the floor react to people and follow them. Just check out the video :)
