And now, with the introduction of Hyper-V, we have a whole new failure vector to think about.

    Windows XP vs Vista: What you need to know 17/04/2008 12:15:13

    Will Windows XP still be properly supported by Microsoft and, as a primary development target, by third parties? Is there something XP die-hards have missed, some hidden gotcha that's going to trip them up 12, 18, or 24 months from now?

    Death match: Windows Vista versus XP 17/03/2008 18:32:25

    So there you are, signing the "Save XP" petition, shaking your fist in triumph as you stick it to "the man". It's a liberating feeling. You've found the courage to buck the trend and jump off the Wintel upgrade treadmill. You feel empowered, enlightened. But still, there are these nagging doubts.

    Two takes on preproduction testing 28/07/2004 15:25:03

    It's a hard-core developer's worst nightmare: You pour your heart and soul into a new project, double-checking every .Net I-interface and cross-checking every T-SQL statement only to discover -- post-deployment -- that a hidden flaw is killing your program's scalability. Management is breathing down your neck and you've got that uneasy feeling that the outsourcing vultures are beginning to circle, but every line of code looks as perfect as when you first crafted it.
