Windows Longhorn Screenshots Available Online

The Fred writes "I found this website that seems to have screenshots for the next version of windows. Everything from a new start button, extended task bar, display options, .NET capability, and a bigger clock." Fair number of UI changes, some good, mostly irrelevant, but it's interesting. Wonder if it's real.

Its just a preview of a future far off OS that you dont even have to use in the frist place.

Are you sure about that? I'm not trying to tell you that the sky is falling, but it might make sense that Palladium would be shipped with Longhorn for the first time. If the palladium architecture actually gets put in place, it might rapidly become very difficult to use free operating systems. Oh sure, they'd work just fine - as long as you're not concerned with interoperating with those who do choose to use proprietary software.
