Looking ahead to new tech in 2007
Anyone seeking clues on the products that will most deeply affect the tech landscape next year needs to start with Microsoft and Apple. Both companies are releasing new versions of their main computing operating systems. Microsoft (MSFT) will release Windows Vista for consumers in January. Apple Computer (AAPL) is expected to introduce Leopard soon thereafter. The moves are likely to kick off a round of computer upgrades and change the way a PC looks and feels.

Now, before the hate-mail tsunami begins, it’s important to note that Apple has itself borrowed feature ideas on occasion, even from Windows. But never this broadly, boldly or blatantly. There must be enough steam coming out of Apple executives’ ears to power the Polar Express.

Windows vs. Linux vs. OS X
John Halamka, CIO of the Harvard Medical School and previously a dedicated Windows user, spent a month each with new notebooks running Red Hat Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows XP.
“I used to think that the Macintosh was something used by free spirits just to be different,” he says. “Now I realize the Mac has such superior human factor engineering that it’s used by people because they can be more productive. If Apple comes up with a 2- or 2.5-pound 12-inch-screen laptop that runs cool, has better integration with Exchange, and if Vista turns out to be the beast it could be, then I probably will move to a Mac.”
