Vista NYT Reader Beta Now Available

Microsoft and the New York Times have made available a desktop application for reading the newspaper's content on a PC, which was built using WinFX and takes advantage of new features in Windows Vista. The Times Reader was first unveiled in April as an example for developers.

Specifically, Vista's WPF display technologies enables NYT content to be automatically adjusted for any screen size, with users able to customize font size and content relevance. The application also utilizes the same font styles as the print edition of the New York Times. Download the Times Reader beta from FileForum.
