I think they all know it, but they can't say it out loud because they've all drunk the Kook Aid on this.

Would You Want To Buy Longhorn Now? 12/02/2003 12:13 AM
It's no secret that plenty of bootleg software shows up in various marketplaces in Asia. Thus, while I'm not at all surprised to hear that Malaysian street vendors are apparently selling bootleg copies of Microsoft's Longhorn OS, I have to wonder who would buy such a thing? Microsoft, of course, isn't known for getting things right on the first shot, but this isn't even the first release of Longhorn, but something that is so far in pre-release mode that I'd be surprised if it really works at all. Longhorn isn't expected to hit the market for a couple of years (note the plural), so I imagine anyone who actually spends money on it at this point is getting something that isn't anywhere near ready for prime time use.

Tiger 150, Longhorn 0


Tiger 150, Longhorn 0 08/29/2004 10:56 AM
When Steve Jobs took the stage at the Worldwide Developers Conference and unveiled the next version of OS X, Tiger, comparisons were quick to be drawn to Microsoft's Longhorn — some by Apple itself with a few strategically-placed banners. At the time, Longhorn was still packed with the promise of a better search engine, one that seemed to even put Panther’s superior engine to shame. But then Steve demoed Spotlight, and all fears were put to rest. Set to launch in the first half of 2005, Tiger continues to pile on the features, while Longhorn, now looking at a <A HREF="http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=569&ncid=73 8&e=3&u=/nm/20040828/tc_nm/tech_microsoft_windows_dc">2006< /A> target date, is trimming its own. "We've had to make some trade-offs to deliver the features corporate customers, consumers and OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) are asking for in a reasonable time frame," said Microsoft group vice president Jim Allchin. Apparently, five years just isn't enough time to properly overhaul an OS. "In developing software, somewhere you have to put a stake in the ground and there's often some hard trade-offs you have to make," said Michael Cherry, a analyst with Directions on Microsoft, an independent researcher based in Kirkland, Washington. The Windows File System, or WinFS for short, is — or rather, was — "the active storage subsystem in Longhorn that is used for searching, organizing, and sharing data. WinFS maintains a store of items and their properties, and provides a system service in Longhorn to retrieve information when it's needed." However a <A HREF="http://msdn.microsoft.com/data/winfs/default.aspx?pull=/lib rary/en-us/dnaero/html/wux_topic_storage.asp">note</A> on the Microsoft Web site reads, "In spite of what may be stated in this content, WinFS is not a feature that will come with the Longhorn Operating System. However, WinFS will be available on the Windows platform at some future date, which is why this article continues to be provided for your information"

Sometimes I'll walk into a bookstore (or other places where paperback books are sold, such as the supermarket or hardware store) and see two displays of work by a single author. One will be in, say, a red cover while the second might be in a green cover. Close inspection reveals that the content of the book is the same in both instances; only the covers differ.
