Microsoft will display a beta version of Windows XP next week that will run on tablet PCs, a new breed of computers that have touch screens and can read handwriting.
According to sources close to the company, Microsoft will unveil details of the new operating system at next week's TechXNY trade show in New York as it assists manufacturers in having the machines on store shelves by October. The announcement will likely come during a Tuesday morning keynote by Jeff Raikes, group vice president for productivity and business services at Microsoft.
