Microsoft looks beyond Windows at WinHEC
At this year's Microsoft conference for Windows hardware experts, the software giant will be talking about a lot more than the operating system.
The upcoming Vista and Windows Server "Longhorn" updates will be at the forefront at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference in Seattle this week. But another kind of software will also step into the spotlight--Office 2007. "This is going to be the WinHEC where all three of these products come together," Michael Burk, a Windows product manager at Microsoft, said in an interview. The Redmond, Wash., company will be making announcements about those three areas at the event, he said.
The show should see the release of the long-awaited public test version of Vista, as well as Beta 2 versions of Longhorn Server and Office 2007.
