CompuServe is the best place I know of.  On there is a Windows user forum,
a Windows devloper forum, and two new forums for Windows applications (each
forum contains, um, about 15 sections for WinApp companies.  We're under 
one of these forums and I've found it a good place to learn a lot about
what's out there.

There are also a few magazines.  Windows Shoppers Guide (a magazine, not the
thing that comes with Windows), WugNet, A Microsoft Newsletter, etc.
