Microsoft Midori OS – sounds delicious!
Posted on Jul 31, 08 12:27 AM PDT
SD Time has had access to Microsoft documents that provides the outline of a future operating system (OS) called Midori that would achieve backwards compatibility with Windows and run either natively, in the cloud or as a process (sounds like emulation). The networked nature of the system might allow it to share the data (or even itself?) among multiple machines of different types (desktop, laptop, phone…). This new distributed model is known at Microsoft as “Asynchronous Promise Architecture”.
It sounds very interesting and if you’re a bit technical, you might want to read the rest of it at SD Times. This project is pretty far-off, but it is very ambitious and could be the next big thing or the next big flop, it just hard to tell.
