I am sure it will be buggy enough even at that point. However, I think 2000 was pretty popular and XP not at all (in a commercial business aspect), but this is the operating system I perceive to be the standard for a will (similar to what NT4 did for so long). | | | | Joined: Sep 2002 Posts: 624 UGN GFX Whore | UGN GFX Whore Joined: Sep 2002 Posts: 624 | Yeah but lets not forget that Longhorn looks a lot like XP..

Which is what was done with NT I think. If this is indeed the case that every line of code is going to be rewritten from scratch, then it will most likely be another century until it is out.
On another note, the name Longhorn came from a bar in the Whistler-Blackcomb ski resort area.
Can anyone verify this, or am I in some other dimension?

Whistler became .NET which became 2003 Longhorn is the .NET which is out next year? | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 Community Owner | Community Owner Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 | "Longhorn XP" lol, go figure that it'd LOOK LIKE xp... | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 1,273 DollarDNS Owner | DollarDNS Owner Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 1,273 | yeah, whistler, longhorn, .NET, I believe them all to be the same system. | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 197 Member | Member Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 197 | whistler = windows XP longhorn = next windows release of windows (for the desktop at least).
