What to expect from Microsoft in 2008 0

MicrosoftLogo The famous Bink.nu "expect list" is back! Just as previous years, I made a list of what releases we can expect from Microsoft. 2005 and 2006 turned out to be pretty accurate, the only things wrong weren’t my mistakes but delays or change of plans. Last year I also started to make a list for 2007, because it is a lot of work I never managed to get it done and it never got published. To avoid that I publish what I have now and add stuff over the coming weeks, also based on your feedback!
If you think something is missing or wrong please let me know through a comment or sending an email to bink at bink nu. This list is based on facts, assumptions and wild guesses. Again it is not complete yet and will be updated by your feedback!
