Longhorn Is Coming!

heavensounds
Microsoft is constantly delivering information to the reporters about the newcoming operating system, Longhorn, whichs end edition is promissed for the end of the following year.

This time Microsoft confirmed the time of the BETA version of the system and so this summer Longhorn Beta 1 will be available for workstations, and serves. This way the reasearches will be able to start gettin used to the new enviroment and maybe give opinons and suggestions about how to improve it.

At the same time Microsoft stated, that there is a big chance, that along with described two editions there will also be an edition for home-servers, where user accounts, data and documents will be saved...

Whenever people say something is going to come out in the computer world it is always an underestimation. So don't get your hopes up because you might be waiting for a really, really long time.

Me too... i'm not that excited about it because they always move it to another date... What happened to Internet Explorer 7 will be released this summer? Microsoft is just making people expect that they have this progress thing but the truth is, they have no progress. I love StarCircleQuest.INFO.

Not interested at all. I am always skeptical with Microsoft’s products that I usually let other people try it out first and become the martyrs before I install it. Win XP is a good example of bad software engineering. Remember the Blaster worm and the Sassor worm. There must be plenty of security holes in a new OS. I only installed XP until SP1 was at the corner. Microsoft’s OSes are also notorious for resource hungry. Win 2000 takes only 64MB RAM, while Win XP about 128MB, SP2 about 256MB. Longhorn may take about 512MB. Although I have 1GB RAM, which allows me to run Longhorn smoothly, I am not convinced it is a good use of resource. Last but not least, people are actually quite fed up with M$ new OSes. Many are still using Win 98. Although XP has been around for more then 4 years (right?), I still don’t see any reason for upgrading.

    more screenspace because the toolbar at the top is not so big anymore. A bad thing that will come
    out of this, or so I've heard, is that Longhorn will spy on you because Microsoft wants everyone

  8. Windows Longhorn Bad News? - (19)
    I just read about windows longhorn and i must say microsoft and the direction they are taking scares

    uniquely ID you and copying a cd? that will be a thing of the past as microsoft decides that it
    doesnt want users sharing media unless microsoft says its legitimate by there standards. Longhorn
    sounds more bloated, slower, and more confusing than windows xp. Every other day they have some new
