Microsoft plans laptop tune-up with Longhorn | |

| Time: 03:13 EST/08:13 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Alex Harris | ||
With the next version of Windows, Microsoft is looking to add a number of laptop-specific features designed to make portable machines both more powerful and at the same time as easy to use as consumer devices such as portable DVD players. To accomplish this feat, Microsoft is looking at the possibility of a separate user interface that could be instantly accessed for playing back movies, music and other media files. The company is even exploring ways that media files could be accessed without logging into Windows as a way to make the experience more comparable to consumer electronic devices. "We're looking at how to make it really quick," said Matti Suokko, a business development manager in Microsoft's Mobile PC unit. He made the comments Wednesday during a Tablet PC discussion at the Windows Hardware and Engineering Conference here. | ||
