The release of Microsoft's newest operating system marks a major turning point for touch screen computing.  Supporting touch screen functionality from its core, Windows 7 delivers unprecedented control over many advanced computing & networking activities.  New features include multi-touch, pinch-to-zoom, "flick" navigation, right click, rotating desktop, "Aero Snap", "Aero Peek", virtual keyboard with auto-complete, digital handwriting recognition, note-taking applications, and more!  While the touch screen may not be completely ready to take over for a keyboard and mouse, these enhancements represent a giant step in the right direction of establishing "touch" as a mainstream form of PC user interaction.

"One cool feature that helps position Windows 7 for the future is the dramatically expanded, native support for touch screens."
