With Windows 7 now finished, Microsoft's next challenge is to drive adoption. Those with high performance PCs made for gaming will only switch if there is a decent incentive to do so. While the nice Aero effects and new taskbar are reason enough for some of us who spend most of our time working on our PCs, gamers will need a little bit more.
Microsoft's lists the following seven reasons for a PC gamer to get Windows 7:
1 - Performance
To quote a coworker: 'Across same hardware, Crysis runs awesome on Win7! Even better than XP!'. Code for the OS has been optimized for better all around performance for games. Whatever you're playing now should be a better experience in Windows 7.
2 - Compatibility
The top third-party games, services, and international versions of games have been tested in Windows 7, so you should not worry about Windows 7 breaking your games. Feel free to move to Windows 7 because whatever you're playing now should work fabulously in Windows 7.
3 - Discoverability
You can use Start -> Search to find any game you just downloaded or installed. No need to launch a separate application. Likewise, you won't need to launch a game to get more info about it: The Windows 7 Games Explorer can show you in-game statistics within a preview pane plus delivers up-to-date info about your favorite game publishers and gives you the opportunity to try new games.
4 - Easy updates
The new Games Explorer will notify you whenever updates are available for your games so you don't have to go searching for them yourself or have to launch the game to see if there's an update waiting.
5 - DirectX 11 support
DirectX 11 means better games, pure and simple, with more advanced features for games to use.
6 - Multitouch support
An increasing number of gamers are using multitouch devices. Windows 7 supports multitouch-capable machines, so you can buy the latest and greatest multitouch laptop or desktop confident it's going to work in Windows 7.
7 - Classics
Here's a bonus reason for you: Windows 7 is going to bring back Internet Backgammon, Internet Spades, and Internet Checkers because you can't spend all your time hardcore.

LG
Behold the New X120 Mini from LG, an average Netbook powered by an average Atom CPU, the usual 1GB of RAM, 160GB of HDD… and a 10.1” WSVGA LED Backlight LCD… If everything so far is average and been seen already, the new X120 is over a Levi’s Jeans branded Notebook with a Levi’s design and a dedicated Levi’s pouch.

Its 8MP camera features Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus, variable aperture, dual LED flash and video recording.
The N86 8MP also comes with a 2.6 inch QVGA AMOLED display, GPS, Wi-Fi, digital compass, 3.5mm audio jack, 8GB of internal memory and – of course – US HSDPA connectivity.
This “ultimate imaging device”, as Nokia presents it, will be available unlocked, for $558.00, both online and from Nokia’s Flagship Stores in Chicago and New York.

Google OS
We can't believe it's actually here, but after hearing whispers of a Google OS for what seems like ages now, the company's now gone official with its plans. According to the official developer blog, it'll be an open source, lightweight platform that can "power computers ranging from small netbooks to full-size desktop systems," and will be capable of running on x86 (that includes Intel Atom) and ARM chips. Addressing potential overlap with Android-based netbooks, the official line is that "choice will drive innovation for the benefit of everyone, including Google" -- a pretty wild statement to make, but hey, it's still all Google. A large portion of its fresh out of beta Google Apps suite already supports an offline mode, so we guess the groundwork's laid out. The company says it's currently working with a number of OEM manufacturers and that it'll initially appear on a number of netbooks coming to market sometime in the second half of 2010. Excited? We are.

- myTouch is about "self expression." Like when you did drawings with crayons for your mom: sure, it sucked, but it was the self expression that mattered. Apparently.
- Cole is talking up the Google love and the Android ecosystem. A "strong Google partnership."
- Cole says we'll have "more Android devices out this year."
- Denny sees it as a more desirable device and potentially more attractive to new adopters of smartphones. "Boundless possibilities" for individualization. They're showing a few videos, which seem to be app-centric as far as individualization goes. "If it could sweat for me, it would."
- A few apps being highlighted: Wikitude, Sherpa, a few exercise apps, imeem, YouTube uploads, Qik (my buddy's iPhone can't do that), Twitter, a ringtone editor. A few Google services mixed in, naturally.
- They're both showing off their own devices and how they've personalized them. Denny is a big fan of Zombie Run, which she plays with her 15-year-old son at the mall. Best mom ever?
- T-Mobile, in partnership with Google, will help put a "lens" on the Marketplace to help users find the good apps. Going to offer an "app pack" to highlight a particularly useful selection of apps. One of the highlighted application partners will be Sherpa. Also working on improved payment options: will include a direct bill option to post app purchases directly to your T-Mobile bill.
- Shipping the phone with a zippered case and a cloth screen-polishing sleeve.
- Matching service plan warranty with device warranty, and working on retail experience / consumer training, including in-store appointments.
- No current plans to bring HTC Hero to the US.

That rumored Highlight for T-Mobile is now official, filling yet another niche segment in Samsung’s massive full-touch attack on the carrier — an attack that now includes the Behold, the Memoir, and this bad boy. As you might have gathered from the appearance, this one comes in at the bottom end of that range, but it really doesn’t slack on the spec sheet — it’s still managing to pack AWS HSDPA, a 3 megapixel camera, WQVGA display, quadband EDGE for world travel, AGPS, and a full HTML browser. It’s available in two colors today — fire and ice, which are basically orange and a black / cool blue combo — for $149.99 on contract after rebates.
