Microsoft Completes Kidaro Purchase

uit Paul Thurrott's WinInfo Short Takes, May 23, 2008
Microsoft this week completed its purchase of Kidaro, a company that makes a virtualization solution that allows corporations to deploy Virtual PC-based virtualized applications to desktop PCs. The big innovation here is that this allows customers to completely bypass any application incompatibility problems presented by new Windows versions, and when you combine it with other Microsoft virtualization technologies, like the SoftGrid-based Application Virtualization product, you see the makings of how Microsoft is going to handle backwards compatibility in future versions of Windows. In fact, I could see something happen as early as the Windows 7 time frame, in 2010, meaning that application compatibility issues could soon be a thing of the past. Stay tuned:  This is going to be an interesting space to watch in the years ahead.

Dat is een interessante ontwikkeling om te volgen. Check ook: How does Kidaro work? Hij schrijft in zijn blog hier het volgende over, zie: Windows Optimized Desktop
