Ik struikelde over Verschepende blog Zeven vandaag… Zijn een blog van iemand op Vensters 7 team dat niet bang is om hun waar gevoel over Microsoft en Vensters en gehoord algemeen te maken (allen zij het annomously )

燙ontrole uit deze interessante post van Verschepende blog Zeven:�

In bijna elke OS van Vensters versie tot dusver, hebben wij iets belangrijk in de OS subsystemen, veranderd om de infrastructuur van Vensters te verbeteren. En dat verknoeit over het algemeen toepassing of bestuurdersverenigbaarheid:
Windows 95
Lange dossiernamen - de ontwikkelaars van de Toepassing moesten hun toepassingen bevestigen om lange dossiernamen te steunen. (Het goede ding van A, niettemin: Wat in 1NTINPRS.AVI? is)
Vensters NT
Ontwikkelaars van de bestuurder moesten bestuurders voor een nieuw bestuurderskader wegens de laag van de hardwareabstractie schrijven. Eigenlijk, weg bleven de meesten van hen enkel, en steunden slechts Win9x.

Vensters 2000
Een belangrijke ergernis voor bestuurdersontwikkelaars, die de NT bestuurdersmodellen tot dit punt konden negeren. Win2k liepen op NTFS, en hadden sluiten-onderaan toestemmingen - de ontwikkelaars konden niet de dossiers van hun toepassing in \ vensters\ systeem meer installeren.
Wij vertelden bedrijven om hun gebruikers zoals niet -niet-admins op hun machines op te zetten,

2008 is hier, zijn nu tijd om de waarheid onder ogen te zien… De klok tikt op de Vensters XP van Microsoft. En terwijl Microsoft dit als natuurlijk stadium in de evolutie van een product kan bekijken dat RTM' E-D (dat aan productie wordt vrijgegeven) al manier terug in 2001 was, zal een gezond deel mensen er niet in slagen om oog aan oog met het bedrijf op dit te zien. In deze context… Het Uitzicht van vensters.

Uitzicht in 2007

Zelfs met Uitzicht heet van de persen, gaf XP geen 殚n inkling dat het de strijd, met Microsoft ging opgeven omhoog zich concentreert bij het winden XP voor goed-be雐ndigt steun voor SP1 en spoedig SP2 zijn.

- Het Beheer van het Product van de Vensters van Microsoft ondervoorzitter Mike Nash op 27 September: „met meer dan 60 miljoen vergunningen die vanaf deze zomer worden verkocht, is het Uitzicht van Vensters op spoor om het snel-verkoopt werkende systeem in de geschiedenis van Microsoft te zijn.“
They had done it-sold over 20 million licences in the first month since RTM, passing 40million within the first 100days and 60 million by mid 2007. The last statistics made available to the public, dating back to the end of October, pointed to over 88

BARCELONA, Spain �€” Nov. 5, 2007 �€” Today, during the keynote address at Microsoft TechEd Developers 2007, S. �€œSoma�€� Somasegar, corporate vice president of the Developer Division at Microsoft Corp., announced that Microsoft will release Visual Studio 2008 and the .NET Framework 3.5 by the end of November 2007. Visual Studio 2008 and the .NET Framework 3.5 enable developers at all levels to rapidly create connected applications that offer compelling user experiences for Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, the 2007 Microsoft Office system, mobile devices and the Web. Soma also unveiled plans to open new opportunities for Visual Studio partners, as well as to deliver new tools and resources for developers, including a first Community Technology Preview (CTP) of the Microsoft Sync Framework and new capabilities for Popfly Explorer.

�€œThe highly social and visual nature of the Web has fundamentally changed what users expect from all applications they interact with, regardless of whether it�€™s on a customer-facing Web site or Windows rich client application, or a desktop business application built using Microsoft Office,�€� said Somasegar. �€œTraditionally, organizations have been hard pressed to deliver the richer, more connected applications and services they need to boost productivity, drive revenue and stay ahead of

Microsoft has announced that support for the F# functional programming language will be fully integrated into Visual Studio. This marks a bold new commitment to facilitating functional programming on the .NET platform and could potentially help legitimize functional programming in enterprise environments. Microsoft’s promotion of F# to a fully-supported language in Visual Studio is also indicative of the extreme versatility of the .NET platform and Microsoft’s Common Language Runtime.

F# began its life as a Microsoft Research project to demonstrate the efficacy of .NET as a platform for mixing multiple distinct programming paradigms. F# is heavily inspired by the OCaml programming language, and a subset of F# and OCaml are largely compatible. F# offers developers many valuable and compelling features without sacrificing much runtime efficiency. F# supports type inference, pattern matching, high-order functions, and currying. F# also supports interactive execution, which means that F# programs can be run like scripts or inputted in an interactive top-level environment similar to the Python shell or Ruby’s IRB. F# also has full access to the .NET APIs and components written in other .NET languages.

The advantages of functional programming

Unlike imperative or procedural programming languages, in which computation is typically performed by altering

If you are a .NET Developer, and you might found out that Vista( or Windows Server 2008)聽is not including the FrontPage Server Extensions for IIS7, this component which is important聽when hosting a聽ASP or ASP.NET web site.

Windows XP SP3

On 8/28/07 we will also be announcing plans for Windows XP SP3 as a roll up of all the hot fixes and patches including security updates, out of band releases and hotfixes. This is a standard practice to release a service pack as a release nears end-of-life that rolls up all hot fixes and patches, for the convenience of our customers and partners. There are no new features in Windows XP SP3, with the exception of Network Access Protection, a capability in Windows Vista that is also being made available on Windows XP SP3 and will require Windows Server 2008.

When will Windows XP SP3 be available?

We are targeting 1H 2008 for the release of Windows XP SP3, though our timing will always be based on quality as a first priority.

Windows Server 2008 update:

路 Windows Server 2008 is now slated to release to manufacturing in the first quarter of calendar year 2008. The joint Windows Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 launch, scheduled for February 27,
