Apple Checks out the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference

by , 3:45 PM EDT, May 24th, 2006

Four Apple employees are at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference taking place in Seattle this week. CNET writer Joris Evers quoted hardware technology group manager David Harrington as saying: "I am attending WinHEC to keep tabs on what is happening in the industry and what Microsoft is looking to do over the next year." He declined to elaborate.

Mr. Evers speculated that Apple has employees at the conference because of Boot Camp, Beta software released last month that enables Intel Mac owners to run Windows.

WinHEC is the premiere show for Windows driver writers and now that Apple must maintain a set of Windows drivers for Boot Camp, it makes sense that they would attend.
