- ComputerGuru 18y agoMicrosoft Research does some really exciting stuff. Most of what they do is real hackers' material, the sort of stuff you'd expect from a guy in his mom's basement or Ph.D's theses. They have some really interesting prototypes and proof-of-concept software out that can be downloaded from http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/ http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/ It's a shame that most of their research (stuff like Singularity and this IE-OS project) never see the light of day, but some of the stuff you can DL is really nifty... and rather unheard of.
- snprbob86 18y agoThe Singularity source code is available at http://www.codeplex.com/singularity http://www.codeplex.com/singularity Don't be so sure that MSR stuff doesn't ever see the light of day... or hasn't already in one form or another... (oooo insider speaks in cryptic tone.... cue Twilight Zone music)
