Abstract: Techniques for using CPUID for showing features that are deprecated are described. In some examples, CPUID is to include at least one field for an opcode, one or more fields to identify a source operand which is to store a LSL selector value, and one or more fields to identify a destination register operand, wherein the opcode is to indicate that execution circuitry is to, when the single instruction has been enabled by a setting of a bit in a control register, write a LSL value stored in the control register to the destination operand when the LSL selector value of the first source register operand matches a LSL selector value stored in the control register, and set a flag in a flags register.

Abstract: A virtualized coordinate system is determined that describes an alternate monitor space. The virtualized coordinate system is provided to an application providing content to be displayed and the application provides virtualized rendering information including coordinates in the virtualized coordinate system. The virtualized rendering information is scaled for display on the monitor.

Abstract: Described is a pluggable policy component that determines the look and feel, or windows visual experience, of a computer user interface. Window-related instructions are redirected to the policy component, while client area change instructions are provided to a substrate (into which the policy component plugs in) that includes a composition component. The plug-in policy component handles windows-related (e.g., structural or attribute) changes to a scene graph to construct and maintain the scene graph, while the substrate handles program content changes to the client areas within windows. The substrate may include a desktop window manager that has access to the client areas in the scene graph, whereby the desktop window manager can copy a client area for rendering. For example, the desktop window manager can provide a supplemental live thumbnail image of a window.
