Microsoft Windows 7, the latest version of Windows operating system, was launched in India today. Windows 7 comes with several new features like Aero, Shake, Peek, Snap, Jump Lists and a redesigned Windows Taskbar. Windows 7 users can make use of new features such as HomeGroup, Play To, Windows Live Movie Maker and Remote Media Streaming.

Windows 7 users will be able to downgrade to Windows Vista and Windows XP, Microsoft confirmed. The confirmation of "downgrade rights" is an implicit admission that the Vista has failed and customers are still fond of Windows XP.
