Longhorn Server Scrapped

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the moving-to-whistler dept.

punkass writes "Microsoft announced Tuesday that plans for .Net Server, aka "Longhorn" have been scrapped and they will instead focus on the the release after that, code-named Blackcomb. NT4 came out in 96, 2k in 2000, and Longhorn was due out in 2005-06...Blackcomb seems to be a long time between releases."

    Talk about nasty, hope it was a sharp blade.
    Now scrapped I could understand, like most MS stuff it's ill-conceived. But to scrape the poor thing. Owwww.
