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.
