Microsoft WinHEC 2005

I'm here is sunny Seattle, could not have asked for a more beautiful day for walking around and seeing the sights. WinHEC is starting bright and early tomorrow, Bill Gates is delivering the Keynote, we're on the one road, the road to 64bits!

Intel is a platinum sponsor of Microsoft’s WinHEC 2005 — an event designed to deliver technical information to individuals who plan, design or develop hardware for Windows-based computers.

64-bit computing is the next step in the computing continuum and will be a focus at the show. Intel and Microsoft are leading the industry shift by offering the broadest choice of industry standard platforms available today. Intel’s end-to-end 64-bit solutions for desktops, workstations and servers based on the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor with Hyper-Threading (HT) Technology, Intel® Xeon™ processor and Itanium® 2 processor-based platforms are propelling the move to 64-bit computing. In addition to 64-bit solution demos, Intel will showcase compelling new technologies at the show, including:

manageability and virtualization technology
multi-threading and multi-core computing
chipset and memory technology transitions
mobility and wireless platform solutions, and

advances in I/O technologies.
