	WinHEC: Windows Hardware Engineering Conference
		WinHEC is a key event for all hardware engineers, system manufacturers, and driver developers who design and build easy-to-use, reliable PC systems and components running Microsoft Windows Vista and Windows Server "Longhorn."
		WinHEC also provides many opportunities for interactive exchange of ideas with Microsoft and other industry experts.

	WinHEC sets stage for Longhorn and 64-bit - vnunet.com
		WinHEC delegates have been told that the "adoption of 64-bit systems is expected to advance rapidly, especially in the enterprise space".
		Charney highlighted one example at Microsoft where the time to complete a database query was reduced from eight hours to less than five minutes as a result of the faster access to memory on a 64-bit system.
		Microsoft is also expected to release a Longhorn preview to delegates at WinHEC prior to the first beta this summer, and will demonstrate some of the software's visualisation and document organising features.

	Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows: WinHEC 2004 Show Report and Photo Gallery
		While Microsoft didn't announce general hardware requirements for Longhorn at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC) 2004 this week as expected, representatives from the company did reveal that the graphics card requirements for the upcoming system have changed since they were first revealed at WinHEC 2003 last year.
		Part of the problem, I suspect is the constant delays Microsoft faces with XP SP2, which was original due in the first half of 2004, but was recently set back to late summer 2004 (though I'm hearing "July" might be the new date).
		This year, at WinHEC 2004, the companies showed off Athens PC generation three, dubbed "Troy," which now features a Longhorn user interface, but still retains the prototypical elements of past designs, like a breakout box for currently unassigned functionality, like a docking bay for a PDA.

	Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows: The Road to Windows Longhorn 2003
		During his WinHEC keynote address on May 7, 2003, Will Poole, the Senior Vice President of the Windows Client Division at Microsoft, revealed the roadmap for Longhorn, setting the final release date of the product firmly in 2005, two years from now.
		WinHEC is geared toward hardware and driver developers, and clearly this audience needs the most lead-time to ensure that their products are in the channel by the time Longhorn ships.
		At the WinHEC trade show in May 2003, Steve Ball, a Program Manager in the Windows Audio Video Devices Group, presented a talk called "Windows Longhorn Audio/Video Devices User Experience (UX)." This talk was notable for a few reasons, but most conspicuously because his slideshow contained imagery depicting the "Aero" user interface in Windows Longhorn.

		It remains to be seen whether the open source community can pull together an integrated platform that rivals the two personal computing leaders, but a software platform consisting of multiple parts from multiple vendors will prove to be difficult to deliver as a "seamless" experience.
		It could be that you have different software platforms for different parts of your digital life, such as your office, home, music collection, and games.
		At WinHEC, Allchin talked about creating scenarios that are "deeply immersive," in which the technology is mostly invisible.

	Wired News: Microsoft Plugs PC as Media Hub

		But, as an industry event, this year's WinHEC was a turning point.
		At last year's WinHEC, Microsoft and HP showed off a similar concept PC for office workers called Athens.

	The Richter Scale - WinHEC '95 Brings A Number of Surprises
		I skipped WinHEC '94, and felt remorse after numerous people asked me where I had been during the week, as they hadn't seen me. So, this year I decided to give the conference another shot, and I must admit I actually learned something at WinHEC '95, although it certainly wasn't what I expected.
		Another thing I observed during WinHEC was how hard certain companies were trying to convince attendees that their world view was a do or die proposition.
		At WinHEC, as before, politics and private agendas ran rampant, and the real information to be had was not in the sessions.

	WinHEC 11: Microsoft's $200 Billion Mosh Pit \| TG Daily (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		It didn't matter what hardware you built in those days, you had to be at WinHEC to figure out how to make it work, and to find out where Microsoft would hide certain files you needed on their developer disks.
		In the last couple of years, WinHEC has lost out in terms of coverage to Intel's Developer Forum (IDF), a grander, more expensive, and more pushy PR effort.
		The sad thing is that with Microsoft's recent anti-trust woes, company execs just don't have that same pep, and arrogance of the past.

	WinHEC 2005 Preview
		The launch of 64-bit computing will provide the flash at Microsoft's Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC), slated to be held in Redmond on April 25 to 27.
		At the annual gathering, system and device vendors as well as a number of ISVs will look for the latest skinny on the various Windows platforms, including 64-bit support and, according to sources, a new mini Tablet/eBook hybrid form factor.
		In a road tour across the country this month, Jim Allchin, the group vice president of Microsoft Platforms, advanced the WinHEC message that Longhorn will be more than just Windows XP Service Pack 3 for customers and developers.

	WinHEC: Down to Business
		With Longhorn expectations pared down and the expected ship date now some time in December 2006, OEMs (define) and partners still have time to get their Longhorn-compatible stuff in the pipeline.
		The Longhorn roadmap looks a lot different than it did at WinHEC 2004, when Gates and Windows head Jim Allchin said it would integrate a new storage and file system, WinFS, the 3-D graphics capabilities of Avalon and Indigo, the messaging infrastructure based on Web services.
		WinHEC attendees will receive at least a partial "pre-beta" build of Longhorn; attendees of the 2004 conference received an alpha build.

		I predict that the biggest splash of hype, by far, at WinHEC will be Microsoft’s Simply Interactive PC white paper and presentation.
		WinHEC will be interesting this year, and I hope a little less commercial than in previous years.

		April 25, 2005, 12:06 PM As the WinHEC 2005 developer conference kicks off today in Seattle, much of the focus will be on Longhorn, with Microsoft publicly previewing its next-generation Windows release for the first time since April 2004.
		Eventually, it will enable advanced visual capabilities that Microsoft is expected to show off during WinHEC, but DWM also brings with it hefty hardware requirements.
		Microsoft is preparing hardware makers for Longhorn's expected debut late next year, already launching a new logo program to designate "Longhorn Ready" PCs and a premium logo for hardware that takes advantage of Longhorn's new functionality.

		Metro was demonstrated during Microsoft Chairman and Chief Software Architect Bill Gates' keynote at the start of the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC) on Monday in Seattle.
		The format, based on XML (extensible markup language), will be licensed royalty free and users will be able to open Metro files without a special client.
		A first Longhorn beta is due by the end of June and the final version in late 2006, but any date could slip because of issues that may come up during testing, Gates said.

		The preliminary agenda for the event listed two sessions that were to include NGSCB, including one titled "How to build NGSCB-enabled systems." But NGSCB is a no-show at WinHEC, at least on the final conference calendar.
		It has taken the form of Microsoft support for TPM (Trusted Platform Module) hardware and a feature in Longhorn called secure startup.
