Hey! I work for Microsoft. I'm the lead marketing PM for the Microsoft Application Server http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/appserver/default.mspx. My areas of interest include Windows Server, the .NET Framework and SDK, Visual Studio, and related pieces.
I previously worked with IBM for about 4 years in a similar capacity, focusing on DCE, Encina, MqSeries, Publish and Subscribe technology, CORBA, and finally, WebSphere and VisualAge. I arrived at IBM by way of Transarc, a software startup that was acquired by IBM in 1994.
I joined Microsoft after being convinced that most software was too hard and too expensive, and there ought to be a simpler, easier way. I'm continuously looking for that way. XML Web Services is a step forward. So is managed code.
