InternetNews | at | by Mike
Microsoft announced Wednesday that Steven Sinofsky, formerly senior vice president for Windows and Windows Live Engineering, has been promoted to president of the Windows Division. Now he's got responsibility for the whole Windows enchilada -- from engineering to marketing.
Sinofsky is a 20-year Microsoft employee and distinguished himself in the late 1990s and the early 2000s in part for his work on Office. In particular, he successfully drove a series of successful and on-time Office releases, including Office 2003 and Office 2007.
