Sorry Rick, but I was just reporting what I had been told by someone who is supposed to be in the know. I haven't actually seen it. I'm sure it will be wonderful after two or three more revisions though.<vbg> There was something also about Longhorn being the same codebase we have been using, as in they scrapped the 64 bit codebase. Know anything about that?
