&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN:0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;FONT face=verdana,geneva&gt;Designed to be user-friendly, the new packaging is a small, hard, plastic container that’s designed to protect the software inside for life-long use.&amp;nbsp; It provides a convenient and attractive place for you to permanently store both discs and documentation.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN:0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;FONT face=verdana,geneva&gt;The new design will provide the strength, dimensional stability and impact resistance required when packaging software today.&amp;nbsp; Our plan is to extend this packaging style to other Microsoft products after the launch of Windows Vista and 2007 Office system.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://windowsteamblog.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=479301" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/windowsvista/archive/tags/Windows+Vista/default.aspx">Windows Vista</category><category domain="http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/windowsvista/archive/tags/Announcement/default.aspx">Announcement</category><category domain="http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/windowsvista/archive/tags/Featured+News/default.aspx">Featured News</category><category domain="http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/windowsvista/archive/tags/Packaging/default.aspx">Packaging</category></item></channel></rss>
