简单介绍一下WinFX的基本特征，来不及翻译，先把把原文附上。
Longhorn Application Model
Longhorn defines applications in new, more powerful ways.
1. Longhorn APIs are managed classes that handle much of the programming housekeeping and reduce the workload of the developer. All third party developer compilers and tools that support the .NET Common Language Runtime(CLR) automatically support the new Longhorn API.
2. The Longhorn application model supports both traditional form-based and new page-based navigation applications. Application page-based navigation support is provided by the operating system.
3. A new Longhorn security and privacy model, which is the result of a combination of managed APIs and digital identity, provides application security form the beginning of the development process. Longhorn application and components are trusted because of their use of managed code.
4. the Longhorn APIs represents the best development concepts from a variety of contemporary technologies. In many ways, the developer is no longer constrained by design decision made more than a decade ago.
5. Automatic application state management and retention for easier application developement.
6. ClickOnce deployment technology supports sophisticated deployment features such as installation in Program Files, versioning, Side-by-Side installation, and drizzle download.
7. Inductive UIs lead users through a task.
8. Accessibility and automation features are built into the platform. Your applications automatically gain such support.
