| | CRN | Q&A With Craig Mundie, Microsoft's |
 | | Craig Mundie, senior vice president of advanced strategies for Microsoft, met with CRN Senior Writer Paula Rooney at Comdex 2000 in Las Vegas this week to discuss Microsoft's.Net strategy, services, the role of the channel, the presidential election, the antitrust case and new applications such as Napster, Groovenet and Microsoft's own Sharepoint. |
 | | Mundie: In the.Net environment, Windows is clearly a key component, but.Net posits that there's an additional platform: this notion of services and a new set of tools to build these distributed applications. |
 | | Mundie: We'll build Office.Net, where we take.Net services and allow users to access it from many devices and take advantage of identity and storage services [that] can be done in the cloud. |
