Are there any software packages providing HMI functionality that officially support or will soon support Windows 7 / Windows Embedded Standard xxxx?

At the moment, I'm only aware of Inductive Automation's Ignition, (which runs on just about anything) ...

I've successfully ran iFix under Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2. According to our GE rep. they'll make the official change to the supported operating systems with the next major version number.

I was also able to get FactoryTalk, Vijeo, and Wonderware working on Windows 7 with minor tweaking of the official documentation. These will most likely list official support for Windows 7 at the next major release.

I spoke with a Wonderware representative a week or two ago and he mentioned that Windows 7 supported would be implemented in a service pack by the end of this year.

Iconics Genesis32 and Genesis64 platforms are both Windows 7 and Server 2008 Certified. I've done a good amount of work with the Genesis32 platform (in XP and Server 2003 however) if you have any questions on the platform.

Just to add to the list, Indusoft's Web Studio v7.0 is compatible with Windows 7.
