Windows 7 Homegroup

February 17th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

windows 7 homegroupOne of the first - and few - new features that have been already implemented in the Windows 7 Milestone 1 release is the so called Homegroup.

Speculations have been running wild already, some suspected that it would be implemented in addition to the Workgroup feature which is already implemented in all newer Windows operating systems.

Others however have been looking back to Windows Longhorn and the year 2003 where Microsoft announced a feature for Windows Longhorn which was named Castle.

What it basically means is a simplified way of connecting computers without having to worry to much about the technical aspects. If that is indeed what Windows 7 Homegroup is all about it will be a welcome new feature that could make networking for all users a much easier and better experience.
