Multi-Touch Integration in Windows 7
The biggest "feature" is the touch and multi-touch integration, which takes many of its roots from Microsoft's Surface Table, and will be available as an interface options for other apps.
A lot of the multi-touch features were culled from the Surface team, and the non-touch features are fairly similar to what's already in Vista.
Note: All these features will be revised/rewritten/reworked before the final version of Windows 7 is available.
