Definition: Midori
A future operating system from Microsoft based on its managed code project (see Singularity). It is expected to be highly componentized, which allows users to install only what they deem necessary for their application. Midori is a non-Windows operating system, and how the billions of Windows applications will run, or not run, under Midori is speculation. See Windows 7.
