If you’re going to do a webcast about how Windows Vista<\/a> and Windows Server “Longhorn”<\/a> are great on their own, but even better together, then there’s no point in having only one presenter do it. So it was decided that we should pair me (David Lowe) with David Zipkin from the Windows Vista team and do the webcast as a double-act. The webcast took place last week but it’s now available on-demand<\/a>, so check it out and let us know how we did. And yes, we know we need more jokes.<\/p>\n

In fact, it was the week for betterness and togetherness all round. No sooner had we gotten Windows Vista out the door at our business value launch<\/a>, but people started turning their focus toward Windows Server “Longhorn”. We posted a Better Together\u00a0overview<\/a> ourselves, and that was quickly followed up by a Computerworld article<\/a> delving into some of the details.<\/p>\n
