Those of you have been holding off on upgrading to Vista, or wishing to skip the operating system all together by moving directly to Windows Seven, may see the new Windows OS in stores as soon as this coming September!

According to a bevy of tech blogs, “7″ could be ready to launch as early as Q3 2009, a full quarter earlier than was previously thought, and better than the simple “2010″ time frame given by Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. This would clearly be a much appreciated release time for those hoping to avoid the troubled Vista OS all together.

As someone who bought a new PC which included Vista, and have been somewhat unhappy and oftentimes annoyed by the OS, I will be very interested to see what the consumer response is to Microsoft Windows 7.
