  ActiveWin.com: Interview with Wendy Apperson, Product Manager: Microsoft Remote Keyboard for Windows XP Media Center Edition and Wireless Optical Desktop 5000
Time: 02:29 EST/07:29 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Robert Stein

I had a chance two weeks ago to sit down and interview Wendy Apperson, Product Manager for Microsoft Hardware about two of the new Microsoft hardware products released this summer. Here is an excerpt:

ActiveWin.com: What would you say the overall goal is for the Microsoft Remote Keyboard for Windows XP Media Center Edition?

Apperson: I would say one of the main goals is to simplify and improve the user's overall media and entertainment experience as a whole in the living room. We entered the Media Center market last year with the Media Center remote which has been pretty sucessful, but now we are expanding in that market by building on where the remote has left off. We now understand better how people are using the remote and MCE in the living room and have a clearer picture of the general user scenario and what can be added or improved upon. We are finding entertainment is more of an interactive and community based activity with MCE then only using the Internet before.
