You are right, let see.
I am just afraid improvements being in the "Joe the clipper to help you" kind. Or the Lonhorn proprietary SVG-derivated XML vector format kind. Or the java-compatible but not java-compatible but not java-compatible virtual machine (a pdf-like but slightly enough non-pdf compatible format...)...
Also, what about the Mac version of Expression ? Any chance for a port to Linux someday ?
But true, let see. Like you I beleive vector drawing was the last dongeon not taken by MS. They couldn't let that to Adobe. So they may as well improve Expression for true. But I still think that even if they improve it, they will deface it.
By the way I would like you to name a MS product over-improved ... :-)
