WinFX

WinFX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "In computing, WinFX is the main Application Programming Interface that Microsoft will introduce in its upcoming operating system, Windows Vista to supersede the current Windows API. The Windows API will still be present in Vista, but it will not give direct access to all the new functionality introduced with WinFX. In addition, WinFX is intended to give programmers easier access to the functionality present in the Windows API."
