The development of Windows 7 has already attracted the attention of the antitrust regulators who oversee Microsoft’s operations following the 2001 United States Microsoft antitrust case settlement. According to status reports filed, the three-member panel began assessing the prototypes of the new operating system in February 2008.
Michael Gartenberg, an analyst at Jupiter Research said that, “[Microsoft's] challenge for Windows 7 will be how can they continue to add features that consumers will want that also don’t run afoul of regulators.”
