But but but - I thought Longhorn had been renamed Vista and been consigned to the Useless Bin. Or am I showing my iggorance?

Hi Archie,
Yep, I suppose all these fancy code names can be confusing. And the regular changes make it even more so.
“Longhorn” is really the codename for the technology development project which spawned Vista for the desktop and is now about to give us Windows Server 2008 (currently in Beta 3).

So Longhorn continues to work towards creating the useless? Surely chasing Linux in the server race is a pointless exercise. (If I had a younger brain I would be a Linux user.)
