So far, we’ve discussed the Specialized for Laptops and Designed for Services pillars of Windows 7. The common thread between these two focuses on connectivity and utilization of online resources. The third pillar, unsurprisingly, shares the same common link with the other two pillars.

Part Three of my series on the Five Pillars of Windows 7 will expand on some of the elements of the Designed for Services pillar with Microsoft’s plan for personalization and access. Given how susceptible the User Interface of an application or operating system is to change, this pillar could see the largest shift in scope over the coming years, so don’t be terribly surprised if the information in this pillar sees the most change out of all of them.

Comments are appreciated. You can catch pillar three after the jump.
