Firstly, its gonna be (apparently) released by 2012

- 128 bit OS
- Will (probably) exclusively have IE10 (like anyone here uses IE anyway) and has a Windows Phone 7 look
- MORE F****** RIBBONS
- The Start button and the System Tray looks like my Wii...

So... is everyone gonna fork out Mo Money? and will Dolphin work on a 128bit OS?

64-bit already supports 128GB of memory! how much does 128-bit support?!

I think they should work on 7 for now Smile

8 is something we should see being released in 2014-2025.

7 works fine

what would need work in win7? :/
Hmm, will the 128-bit yield the same performance increase as 32-bit to 64-bit for Dolphin? (= not so very much)

Otherwise, how else is the OS worth it? Win7 supposedly fixed the crappines of Vista, or is there any more performance to be gained?

And the features? Win7 haven't got much new from what I've seen... the "gagdets" that lets you check the stock market, and other stuff of negible importance to the common user...
There will be no 128bit version of windows 8.

Microsoft have already crushed that stupid rumour.

and IE10 is already on windows 7.
