well they say it will be out next year but i doubt it, it will also be very CPU hungry and memory hungry.

Hi, I did read on the german computermag website www.chip.de that Microsoft is planning to release Longhorn in the first half of this year to software- and hardware developers. Longhorn will be the main theme on this years "Windows Hardware Engineering Conference" (WinHEC) in April in Seattle. Producers and developers will get information about system reqs. for Homecomputers, Servers etc. In the meantime Microsoft introduced the new gfx-technology "Avalon". For Avalon Microsoft recomends at least a 1GHZ PC with 256 MB Ram /Dirextx9 GFX Card and Win XP incl. SP2 You can Download Avalon BETA AVALON BETA

Oh yes! Definetely CPU and memory hungry! I heard its installation needs about 5-6GB and graphics (Avalon as mentioned) will need a lot of CPU power. It will mostly be released in 2006. It is being postponed regularly. But it will be much much better that Xp. If you are not in a hurry that waiting will be a good idea. You will find better and more set hardware. Technology is a bit shaky now. Not sure of the future. Many emerging but the time they sort it out Longhorn will be out.

I read a few days ago that first beta version of Longhorn will be released to public sometimes in June/July,together with the release of new incarnation of Internet Explorer 7.0 . Does anyone have some screenshot of how Windows Longhorn will probably look like? When you think about it,it's been a long long time since Windows XP was released,and it still looks nice and fresh.

I have a beta version and i dont like it. Windows tells the premiere is half-year 2006

Hi all, Just an update- www.cnet.com has a comprehensive article on this subject posted 03/30/05 (or maybe 03/31/05). Good expert oppinions & an industry overview about the upcoming release due out this June/July. Interesting re: MS has yet to support the "need" for a new OS other than just putting more megabucks$$$ into MS's coffers etc. The overall oppinion seems to be >>Just more "whistles & bells" & not much really new with regards to added functionality etc. Will be interesting to see what the price tag is... you can bet it will be a big one.

This thing will use direct3d to render the desktop, that should give you an idea about how much power it'll need...

You should check out www.winsupersite.com for information on Longhorn. It has a FAQ, as well as screenshots. I for one is looking forward to it. I'll get it as soon as I can, cause I've never had any bad experience with Microsoft products.

They were originally going to put a new file system into longhorn, which I was looking foward to to see what that would turn out like, but I believe they're delaying that.

see you in other post. Reinstalling windows is a daily chore for the students studying computers.
They have to switch a lot of softwares, compilers etc etc. Windows as we know, will not tolerate a
