[pchelpers] Re: Longhorn Explained

Most interesting article. It looks like they are going to re-write the 
landscape again with new terms that will be replaced before we learn 
what they mean. I found this paragraph interesting:


      Longhorn

This is the over-arching name for the next release of Windows. It will 
contain various new technologies that each has its own interim name. The 
names are interim monikers only, and presumably by the time it reaches 
store shelves it’ll be called Windows …

Longhorn is a major change in Windows – there are few parts of the 
operating system that won’t be totally revamped. To run in its entirety 
you’ll need a new computer with new specifications for very secure 
computing – but most people won’t need that level of compatibility from 
day one. The hardware specifications for Longhorn are far from being 
announced.

So they are saying get your cheque books ready. Utimately, they will 
make you buy a new computer if you want to really use it.
