    Nice screenshots, love the GUI on it. Seem's more like a well-designed theme to the new windows interface. Bleh, thanks for the link!

    I know Windows/Linux users alike that use Firefox. I guess the part of "the browser you can trust" is funny..

    Looks like xp with a facelift...

    So it no doubt has more and better drives. will be released with a 64bit version and have known security problems fixed.....

    But what is new and revolutionary... i mean the skin job is tight but i can do stuff like that with windowsblinds and a number of shell replacements too.

    This beta at least i have heard nothing about new features that blew the reviewers out of their mind.

    yup canceled winFS for now. they said it would take too long to meet the deadline.

    So its lost most of what it was worth becasue of that alone.

    IE 7.0 is going to be better than 6.0 so firefox will take a hit in new users. But it doesnt have much going for it anymore aside from the face lift and fixed security issues. Its like they are taking winxp and make the code how it should have been. and then giving it a facelift

    So if they are not giving WinFS with it then i'm just going to download 'longhorn transformation pack' and voila, i have my own longhorn long before they release it, because as for these security updates, windowsupdate is there. And for rest, tweaking can be done.
    Then i have one question left only..... Then what the hell are they spending there spending there time and money (they have lot, so they can but..) on, since so long?
    It\'s all about sense of power.
