- The relationship of Office 12 to Vista and .NET
- How the .NET CLR and runtime will become widespread
- High-level semantics: CLR objects or XML?
- LINQ, or language-integrated query, Anders Hejlsberg’s long-term ambition now coming to fruition
- The RSS data web, notification, SOAP/REST synergy, enterprise syndication
- WPF/E, aka Windows Presentation Foundation/Everywhere, aka portable Avalon
- Why, given the downleveling of the original Longhorn "pillars" to XP, enterprises would still want to upgrade to Vista.
