No one was more disappointed in the Longhorn content Microsoft provided at April's Windows Hardware Engineering Conference, but the software giant appears ready to make up for it this September. That's when Microsoft will host its Professional Developers Conference 2005 in Los Angeles. And with a quick look at the conference tracks and sessions, you can see that it's going to be a much more exciting event than WinHEC.

"PDC 2005 will feature developer-focused presentations, discussions, and technology explorations into the future of the Microsoft platform, including the latest developer news on Windows 'Longhorn' and Microsoft Office [12]," a Microsoft representative told me Tuesday. "The PDC is the definitive Microsoft event for software developers."
