Beta 2 will be even more "incredible" and "far more impressive than people now realise". As an aside, there is an interesting use of advertising on that page.	vinref (6194)

Thing is Im not doing much to the core of it, its staying the same Eventually my Lego tower is going to either fall and crubmle, or im going to have some major problems later in life trying to do anything with it because the core will fall over if I try too much.... ...This is what I think longhorn resembles ;)	Chilling_Silence (9)

Then package it and send it to market, Forcing users to upgade their homes in order to house it.	Metla (12)

369504	2005-07-05 13:14:00	Well, the core is supposedly from Win2K or thereabouts, and lots of people have good things to say about it. And MS have been throwing dosh at it. The thing is, Linux, for various reasons, has not taken enough advantage of the time Longhorn was in so much strife (but Apple has!). But then again, Longhorn could suck the big 'un.	vinref (6194)
