I think the Vista version of Tablet OS will tell us a lot about how much progress we can expect to see. My concern is that it will be so bloated and require such significant specs to run (as per some desktop min specs rumors), that tablets will actually face a set-back instead of moving forward. But if the specs are reasonable in the Tablet version of Vista, maybe it could be awesome based on an OS designed with the future of Tablets (and the gamble of Bill's reputation) in mind. It will be very interesting to see. But it MS doesn't do it decently, watch out for open source systems!
