Wndows 7 ...

Microsoft Technet newsletter says

Here are some interesting facts about Windows 7:

  1. Millions have provided input on what they want to see in an operating system.
  2. Windows 7 saw the largest beta testing program in the history, with 8 million testers worldwide.
  3. We received product instrumentation and usage data from millions of PCs in more than 200 countries.
  4. Tens of thousands of people have signed up to host a Windows 7 Launch Party.
  5. 27 new TV ads were developed for Windows 7 across the U.S., Canada, U.K., France, Germany and Australia.
  6. Weight reduction of new Genesis Windows 7 packaging: 56 percent.
  7. Percent improvement in Windows 7 Ecometrics score over Windows Vista: 50 percent.
  8. Windows 7 is available at more than 45,000 retailers around the world

Please pay attention to number 6 .... isn't this great?!!!! can Apple do that? their OS package has been light for long and they screwed up every chance for reduction
