Windows 7 Product Hub was a 3D product showcase that featured Windows 7 hardware and software. At the time, Windows was having a difficult time getting partners to build software and accessories for the platform. This showcase was designed to offset that by providing partners a venue for free exposure.
The biggest challenge with the project was bringing the 3D design to life in Silverlight, something that had never been done before. There were quite a few compromises along the way, but overall the site functioned as designed.
