Windows continues to offer value compared to open-source software and Microsoft will continue to drive that message home to both customers and partners, according to Will Poole, Microsoft's senior vice president of the Windows client business group.
Delivering the last keynote - in a mammoth five-hour session - to the attendees at the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference here on Friday, Poole said the Windows client group was actively looking at customer needs in the area of security vulnerability, the cost of deployment, and enhancing productivity through new technologies such as the TabletPC.
