Microsoft preps Windows-based kitchen client | |
|
||
| Time: 00:07 EST/05:07 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||

Microsoft is beginning work on the first of what it plans to make a family of customized Windows platforms designed for specific rooms around the home. The “Kitchen Client” software will extend the Windows operating system and integrate with current and future Windows Live services, according to sources close to the company. It sounds, from what I can tell, more like an add-on layer than a whole new version of Windows. Among the features Microsoft is planning to make part of its forthcoming kitchen computing environment are a family calendar, recipe center, entertainment features and a shared bulletin board, sources added. | ||

| Do people need a fridge that gives them the Blue Screen of Dairy? And will you get a lawyer's letter unless you only stock it with MS-approved food? Better be careful; MS has probably already patented the peanut-butter & jam sandwich. I hope it comes with that new MS innovation, the ice-cube tray. |

| latch is just scared, cause he knows the Microsoft Kitchen OS will be used in coffee makers... and he'll be out on his ass, with nothing but a few bent swizzle sticks for his trouble. |
