Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y By the time Longhorn comes out I'm sure everyone will be sick of the subject "windows vs linux." Will longhorn finally destroy that pesky linux and mark another decade of Microsoft's monopoly, or will the underdog come out with a stunning upset and send a multi billion dollar company to it's grave?

Just a thought for those who think Longhorn will be "unusable" on < 3ghz computers. I am quite sure you are wrong, the last part of Longhorns development cycle will be spent doing a lot of optimizations and tweaks, to existing code. So I am betting you can run Longhorn "comfortable" without all bells and whistles on a 1,5ghz system.
