Wow! What a week - so much talk of the next version of Windows code-named "7". Of course the multi-touch (see video below) is what everyone is talking about. Now, this is cool because it is the evolution of the Surface which is scaled down to a screen. If you have not seen a Surface - it is...

This is probably old news, but is new to me. I logged into MSDN to check something else out and saw that SoftGrid is now available on MSDN.
