So, with WinHEC coming to a close, the biggest talk was of course the newest release of Microsoft (R) Windows (R) Codename Longhorn, now at build 5048. With nearly one year since the previous release (build 4074) build 5048 sports some new features and lacks some others. Recently, the talk was centered around the lack of WinFS, the new futuristic Windows File system. However, we'll get to all that a little later.

I am not a windows or apple fan, infact I primarily use linux, because its what I work with on a day to day basis. From what I've evaluated on feature sets and seen so far from reviews. I don't think apple has ANYTHING to worry about. I've tried tiger too, and wow. I really give it to apple, they made someone who hated macs want to buy one badly!
Now don't think I'm one of those I hate microsoft zealots, really. It's rather apparent, even from posts in this thread, and I think someone mentioned..WHAT do they solve with this. I want to see desktops moving toward the future, not the same damn thing with a different shade of color.
Also, that new menu bar...ugh, who's idea was it to put scrolling in the menu bar..or even browsing like that. The menu bar isn't explorer! It should be quick and easy. People have a hard time the way it is, and lets add more clutter?
