WinInfo | at | by Mike

In its first major attempt at pushing .NET to developers, Microsoft pulled out all the stops this week at its Professional Developers Conference (PDC) in Los Angeles, telling the 6800 attendees that they were key to the company's Web services future. Microsoft introduced a wide range of information about the .NET technologies Tuesday, including new security features, features for consumers and businesses, and how it will integrate with non-PC devices such as cell phones and PDAs. The company also rolled out a near final version of Visual Studio .NET, its upcoming developer suite.
