The 2,700 attendees at Microsoft's annual Windows Hardware Engineering Conference here are going to get an earful about Windows Vista, the upcoming Windows Server "Longhorn" and Windows Home Server—and that's just from the keynote addresses. "There are three big themes for this conference, the first of which is the industry impact of the Windows platform," Kevin Kutz, a director in Microsoft's Windows client group, told eWEEK in an interview ahead of the WinHEC conference.
"We really want to demonstrate and underscore how important Windows remains as a platform for innovation, and we will try and showcase that as much as possible," he said. The second theme is all about the first 100 days of Windows Vista and an update on market momentum, as well as an opportunity to demonstrate the things that partners have attached themselves to and used to create new and innovative products, he said

I installed Vista Business at work months ago, and uninstalled it the next day. Won't be installing it at home for the forseeable future, either.
It's wonderful how PC video games now have two sets of requirements; one for XP, and one that requires 200 mhz faster processor speed for Vista...
And krusty what are YOU talking about? killed pc gaming how? The game developers, you know, the guys that make the games, seem quite happy with MS and provide direct input into what features go in and not in windows, what more could they do? People like you never say what MS should've done until someone asks then you say something stupid and obvious like 'they should open source windows and merge it with linux' or some retarded variation of this just to appear to be saying something, I mean, what do you know anyways dude? And if MS killed PC gaming
what do you make of: Serious Sam 3, Crysis, Far Cry 2, Halflife 2: Episode 2, Teamfortress 2, Portal, Unreal Tournament 3, flashpoint 2, bioshock, system shock 3, fallout 3, and Call of Duty 4. And those are JUST triple-A FPS titles that are coming out. PC gaming has never been more alive if you open your eyes.
