Will the buyers be able to play the games in the future windows editions such as windows 7?
Will the gog team update the game versions to make them compatible?
Thanks for ur answer

When is Windows 7 expected?

Microsoft has to be the one to not screw up compatibility with earlier Windows versions. Windows 7 is supposedly going to be released in the 2009 holiday season.

I think they will make sure (or better try to) that is has some kind of compatibility,. Like they did with every Windows Version.
Some games will work right away, others will need work arounds and fixed and stuff...
But as we still can play DOS games or games never made for PC like N64 etc, i'm pretty sure someone will find a way to make them working.

They should at least get service pack 2 out for Vista before talking about their next OS. Maybe it's just me but this seems like a really fast race to their next OS. Maybe they want us all to forget Vista ever happened.

I'm betting this is the reason for rushing 7, especially when we can hear that the new system is going to be smaller and faster.
I'm just hoping that they won't take a step back to XP memory manager just to keep users from complaining that "it takes all their mem0ry!!1".

GOG has made a great name for themselves by focusing on compatibility with XP and Vista, and I'm sure they'll continue the hard work with Windows 7.
Their life will be made even easier by the fact that Windows 7 is based heavily on the existing Windows Vista code, but with some performance tweaks and user interface improvements.
I would be quite surprised if Windows 7 breaks compatibilty with any GOG games.

Windows 7 is a Vista kernel with some fancy addons around like the multi-touch interfaces native support, so anything runs on Vista now should run on Seven too.....

From what I read, the jump from Vista to 7 won't be as big of a leap like XP to Vista. The speeds are slightly increased. I'd imagine 90% or more of current video games and software that work on Vista will work on 7 since it is basically Vista with improvements.

Whatever it is, you can be assured it'll be full of bloatware that makes DRM issues look like a flyer.

Clagg, that's only installed by the PC maker, not by Micro$haft.
EDIT:
Clagg, I did not -1 you, I +1'd you, someone else minused you. :(

Not quite:
Software bloat, also known in noun form as bloatware or elephantware[1], is a term used in both a neutral and disparaging sense, to describe the tendency of newer computer programs to be larger, or to use larger amounts of system resources (mass storage space, processing power or memory) than necessary for the same or similar benefits from older versions to its users. Additionally, the term bloatware is used in common language for pre-installed, huge software bundles, mostly consisting of demos and trial ware.
From wikipedia.

ah, so it's both.

yea considering windows 7 is basically vista with some tweaks i wouldn't anticipate that many issues

Speaking of bloatware. Ever buy a laptop from HP? Hp stands for "Heaping Pile". Or so it seems. I ended up buying a clean version of XP because of the problems. It wasn't just Vista. It was the crap it came with (MY HP games, Norton, etc.). I couldn't get it all cleaned out and running well enouph.
Xp Rocks. Now my laptop runs WOW as good as my Vista Desktop.
(When I tried uninstalling Norton from my laptop I couldn't run videos from the Net any more.)
