Typical Microsoft, way too early. Windows XP Tablet edition. Pocket PC.
- Const-me 3y agoYeah, but some new tech became very relevant over time. Examples include Unicode in NT 3.5, asynchronous I/O in NT 4, multi-CPU support in Win2k (become mainstream after hyperthreading and especially multicore CPUs), 3D GPU for desktop compositor in Vista (people universally hated the hardware requirement, but over time we got pretty fast 3D GPUs even inside low-end processors). Sadly, it seems they stopped implementing awesome new stuff after Windows 7.
