Scoble pledges to market [Microsoft’s] current products better. I hope this means he’s also going to keep an eye out for people who can help us use and develop on what we’ve got. Longhorn is still a long ways off and corporate adoption will lag by a few years to boot.

BTW, Why isn’t there a low cost upgrade from XP Home to XP Pro? With hardware prices being what they are, I don’t blame manufacturers for preloading XP Home. But for those of us who want XP Pro, the XP upgrade pricing means a $100 penalty on mid-range laptops – an upgrade from Home to Pro is typically $100 when available as a preload, but $199 if you buy a preloaded Home and then upgrade.
