Its thro
35、ugh applications of every variety that businesses will be using the personal computer as the tool of the Information Age.The PC industry is one of the few industries that can deliver both lower price equipment at the same time as improving the capabilities. The storage systems are now delivering gig
36、abytes of storage as the standard capability. Over 80 million PCs are being sold a year. And the server market, the higher performance machines that these PCs networked with, thats the fastest growing part of the business.Microsoft has a vision for where the PC is going. That vision says that PCs wi
37、ll become a central element of how companies share information inside the company. The name of that vision is, so called Digital Nervous System (DNS), allowing companies to reduce paper work and make better decisions. The DNS means that not only do you have the PCs that are connected together, and n
38、ot only do you have standard elements like electronic mail but also you have really thought carefully about what information is important, as well as all of the processesorder taking, sales planning, personnel management, project managementall of those have been set up to take full advantage of the
39、capabilities of the computer.Another major vision that Microsoft has is that writing the programs, writing the applications for these machines needs to get very easy and we need to be able to do it, so we can write programs that run across the entire Internet which is millions of machines. So this i
40、s a new approach to programming that draws on what was done previously.

43、 in the same way that human systems work, is what we are interested in doing and making. All these connect up to these future applications that I talked about today.Great chips and systems developed by our partners who are here with us sponsoring this event, make this all possible. Theres an incredi
44、ble opportunity for developers. The applications that are written today will sell to an even larger base of machines out in the market. There is a lot that Were doing to increase the work of developers make sure they understand where the PC is going and how tools can help them and were even helping
45、them now, with more and more marketing type of activities making sure they get out in good with the customers.And this is something that we are just going to increase year after year. And so the overall DNS message is one about helping developers seize that opportunity by bringing together the diffe
46、rent architectures, making things automatic and allowing this to be done in a great evolutionary fashion. And so I think its a fantastic time to be a developer and we appreciate your being here and look forward to the opportunity to work with you more.Thank you.填空项 1:_ （正确答案：applications）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：capabilities）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：server）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Digital）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：easy）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：vision）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：cameras）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：interacting）解析：填空项 1:_ （正确答案：human）解析：四、SECTION B(总题数：0，分数：0.00)五、Questions 1 to 5 are(总题数：1，分数：5.00)A.eye disease suffererB.eye
