REDWOOD CITY, Calif. (CBS.MW) -- AtHome and Microsoft announced Thursday they'll deploy high-speed Internet services in a strategic alliance for an estimated 15 million homes and businesses served by small and mid-sized cable firms.

Microsoft's Windows NT operating system for corporate computers will be incorporated into AtHome (ATHM: news, msgs) network services.

In addition, Microsoft (MSFT: news, msgs) will provide support and resources to assist in AtHome's marketing.

"Microsoft's work with AtHome Solutions will bring a tremendous boost to our plans to leverage the power of cable and open nature of the Web to expand access to a richer Internet experience in small and mid-sized cable systems," said Dean A. Gilbert, chairman of AtHome Solutions.

Thomas Kroll, vice president of Microsoft's network solutions unit, said the partnership will help "accelerate the wide-scale availability of broadband services for both consumers and businesses."
