So here we go with the keynote significant announcements:

  • Microsoft and HP become search engine partners  – All HP products will be using Bing as the default search engine. This means that the upcoming HP tablet / Slate will also have it selected as the default decision engine. This is what Ballmer said

    We know we’re at the beginning of a long journey, but we’re off to a pretty good start. Tonight we continue. Microsoft and HP will team up. Bing will become the default search engine on HP products around the world.

  • Windows 7 – A lot of interesting facts were revealed related to the latest OS sensation from Microsoft. The highlights include the Windows 7 being the fastest selling OS in history, a 94% customer satisfaction rate, 4 million apps (old and new) for Windows 7 and more.
