"This is a fundamentally different kind of service pack," said Mr Pilla, "it will make Windows more resilient and more manageable and the features within it more visible.
Although Mr Pilla could not say how big the finished update will be in megabytes he said that users will be able to get hold of it by several different means.
Those on broadband connections will be able to download it but it will also be possible to order it direct from Microsoft and perhaps pick it up in stores.
