Testimony this week from one of Microsoft's top executives has shed light on the software giant's shifting Web services plans and internal power struggles over competing ideas. During cross-examination of his testimony Tuesday, Jim Allchin, Microsoft's senior vice president for Windows, reiterated that the company's .Net My Services plan is still very much in flux, a situation that was previously reported by CNET News.com. The .Net My Services plan is "in a little bit of disarray, Allchin said, according to a transcript of the testimony. "We basically aren't working on it the same way as we were in the past."
Allchin said a plan to offer .Net My Services as a set of tools for big companies is under review. "So our focus is to make sure that we have the products so that corporations can do this within their own (premises)" rather that using Microsoft as an intermediary, he said.
