In October, Microsoft made a number of announcements and took the wraps off of a number of key products that they will be releasing over the next couple of years. These included:

  • Longhorn — The next version of Microsoft Windows
  • Yukon — The next version of Microsoft SQL Server
  • Whidbey — The next version of Microsoft Visual Studio .NET

Additionally, they show-cased a number of technologies that are a part of these larger products. This includes Avalon, Aero, WinFS, ASP.NET 2.0, the .NET Framework 2.0, C# 2.0, a re-written Managed C++, and much more.
