Michael is at the All Things Digital conference in Carlsbad, California where Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates are set to take the stage this opening night and preview the user interface of Microsoft’s next operating system, known as Windows 7 and expected to arrive in 2010.
He will be taking photos and streaming the keynote to here via Qik once it starts. Update: The bandwidth at the event was so bad, we gave up trying to stream it.
During the keynote, Corporate VP Julie Larson-Green demoed new multi-touch functionality, which Microsoft is working with OEMs to get working on new machines once Windows 7 is released - apparently 18 months from now. See a demo below and more info here.
