Microsoft Bits

A couple of things about MS and their tech that I found this morning:

• Windows XP SP2 is a look at what to expect in the as-yet-unreleased SP2 for Windows XP.
• The version of Longhorn that was released at the Microsoft PDC show did not include the littlebit touted "Avalon" interface which utilizes hardware graphics rendering like OS/X and can (apparently) do wonderful and amazing things. Anyway, the interface is kept under tight wraps, but there are some digicam shots of it that were found over at betanews.
