Codenamed "longhorn" Mirosofts newest OS....

Recommended Posts

I have installed a alpha version of the longhorn. It had a black gui and very nice document folders but it had some problems with drivers but i think it is like that only because it is in an alpha stage.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I installed an advanced alpha version too. Worked real nice except for making new folders. Using one of the guides I found, it had a fix for this. Wrong move. This messed up the OS. From this point on, Longhorn refused to work correctly. I made the mistake of installing it over my GOOD working version of XP instead of one that dosen't seem to work right.

 

I have to agree that M$ should slow down when making Windows versions. But I would like to see a whole new Windows. 98 was built off of 95, 2k was built off of 98, ME was built off of 2k, etc...

For all you non believers ... http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

Probably biased, but makes a very good point.
Sure windows has more games... but in general it lags behind other operating systems by upto a decade for some features.

worth the wait ???
if so, then get a play station / Xbox / whatever the cames console of the hour is at the moment.
