During her presentation Fellows focused on the improved security of Windows Vista, saying the new family safety settings via the Parental Control Panel are the most advanced of any operating system.

Vista's security settings can be used to restrict content, downloads and Web sites.

Some significant new features of Vista include live previews, including video, of running applications, integrated search and security, and 3D navigation of applications on the desktop.

For the Australian consumer market, Vista also integrates three key Web services - Kodak Online Print Wizard, the Sanity online music store, and Bigpond Movies for movie downloads.

The 2007 Office System now features a new "ribbon" user interface replacing the traditional dropdown menu, and extends the live preview functionality so documents are updated in real-time. OneNote now ships as part of Office 2007, and Native PDF exporting from applications is now also a feature.
