Microsoft will make its software more reliable and easier to use, promised the vice president responsible for its flagship Windows operating system, even as a new worm continued to wreak havoc on personal computers on Tuesday.
Jim Allchin, Microsoft's group vice president in charge of operating systems, said that Windows still fell short of the world's largest software maker's goal of making computing more user-friendly.
"It's hard to deploy the operating system today, apps (programs) are more difficult to deploy than they should be," Allchin told an audience at the annual Windows Hardware Engineering conference.
