Windows Vista + SoftIce

[taos]

"WinFX, the managed-code API is there, but it isn't required (at least not yet, and hopefully MS will always allow developers to bypass managed code to get to the lower level APIs)." Source hxxp://www.wincustomize.com/Articles.aspx?AID=82119&u=0

"WinFX will seem like second nature, because it��s a superset of the .NET Framework, optimized for Longhorn and exposing all new system functionality. If you��re a Win32 programmer, your existing applications can incorporate WinFX-based functionality very easily." MSDN M$

My opinion:
WinFX consists of these basic components:
NET Framework,��Avalon�� Presentation Subsystem & ��Indigo�� Communication Subsystem.
Sounds like "another" api to use it but you can choose to do it or not.
My assumption about Olly crash is (maybe) for security reasons (infractions, read/writte permission, hook APIs,etc...) so low level apps can need a little re-code.
I will try next week Windows Vista with debuggers to give more info.
