Windows 7: One compatibility, One label

What else is Microsoft doing these days?
We know for sure that they are planning on reducing the four Windows-compatible logos, responsible for confusion and a class action lawsuit, into a single system for all, consumers and partners.

Time to burn those four current stickers and programs that certify PCs as either capable of running the full Windows Vista or Windows Vista “basic”, as well as the “certified for Windows Vista” and “works with Windows Vista” for software and devices.

When this change was announced, Microsoft also demonstrated Windows 7 on Asus EEE S101 with a 1GB RAM, 16GB solid-state drive and a dual-core ATOM processor, so maybe the new sticker will try to prove that Windows 7 is indeed compatible with most new PCs. Will that be the case? Remains to be seen.

Microsoft also told the Register that there would be different stickers for touchscreen and media center devices.
