Microsoft Still Working On Vista | |

Even though Windows Vista's code has been locked down, work will continue on the new operating until it ships, the Microsoft executive in charge of the product said. While boasting that the installation DVD of Vista will contain nearly 20,000 device drivers -- nearly twice as many as Windows XP offered when it debuted in 2001 -- Windows co-president Jim Allchin also said that Microsoft's revamped Windows Update and Automatic Updates services will let the company keep crafting new drivers, then release them to customers once they have the OS on a PC. "We will continue to add more drivers even after the launch," wrote Allchin on the Vista team's blog. Work on third-party application compatibility updates will also continue, said Allchin, as outside developers test their wares against Vista and provide feedback. "As each batch is ready, we will put the new compatibility updates on Windows Update." | ||
