Under the Microsoft tent at CES

Microsoft watcher Mary Jo Foley has an article recounting her adventures at CES. In particular, what Microsoft is up to this year.

More so than at any CES we've ever been to, Microsoft really seems to have dominated the news with new product releases and updates. Much of this is because of Windows Vista itself but a number of other offerings have come together to really make this CES exciting.

Microsoft Home Server got a lot of attention as well as the new version of Windows Vista Media Center. Microsoft also made news with a "Family Pack" upgrade for Windows Vista Ultimate users of $49.95 (we'll talk more about that soon).

Check out Mary Jo's article on some of the things she saw below.
