    From the June 12 edition of MSDN Flash: From the Editor Name change department: InfoCard is now CardSpace, and WinFX is now the .NET Framework 3.0. You'll be seeing the old names for a while, but now you know what's coming down the pike. Do I read this correctly? It sounds like WinFX is being dropped (as quietly as possible), and the .NET Framework is being left essentially as-is. After six years, does Vista have nothing new except a bit of eye candy? An utter, complete fiasco! David Veeneman www.veeneman.com

    No, WinFx and all its components are now included under the .NET Framework 3.0 label. So .NET 3.0 has Indigo etc. inside it. regards, Paul Watson Ireland FeedHenry needs you

              Nice flame. You must have a lot of friends. Virtually everything that has been promised in Vista has been pulled. I'd list them for you, but I assume you are competent enough to look them up for yourself. I'm not buying this latest story about "it's just a name change". But then perhaps you belong to the Department of Gullible Sheep who Eat Whatever is Fed to Them. And on January 1, 2000, I was in London for the Millenium party. Air fares were incredibly cheap, due to the morons who thought planes would fall out of the sky. You want a flame war, bring it on. I'll match you flame for flame. Just remember who started it.

                          Well, in this case you should. Indigo is still there, still works great, you should check out the WinFX SDK. Avalon is still there, still works great, you should check out the WinFX SDK. There was a 3rd exiting thing I can't remember right now, but it's there too! ---- The law student then replied, "Okay.

                                        No you are not reading that correctly. If you were to read that correctly you would know that WinFX isn't going anywhere its just getting a real name (which is .NET 3.0). Had you read that correctly you would have also known that InfoCard is also not leaving it is merely getting a different name.

                                        There is actually a condsiderable amount of added features that haven't gotten the press that WinFX and Aero have gotten. Matt Newman

                                          Nice flame. You must have a lot of friends. Virtually everything that has been promised in Vista has been pulled. I'd list them for you, but I assume you are competent enough to look them up for yourself. I'm not buying this latest story about "it's just a name change". But then perhaps you belong to the Department of Gullible Sheep who Eat Whatever is Fed to Them. And on January 1, 2000, I was in London for the Millenium party. Air fares were incredibly cheap, due to the morons who thought planes would fall out of the sky. You want a flame war, bring it on. I'll match you flame for flame. Just remember who started it.
