Editor's Note: Shaping a New Era in MSDN Magazine

As this issue of MSDN Magazine goes to press, Election Day is drawing near. Like many candidates for office, this magazine sports some bold cover lines and bright, appealing pictures. Unlike those same politicians, however, we will keep working for you month after month, year after year, even after you elect to purchase the magazine.
