Longhorn Beta

Judging by the screenshots , Longhorn is… Disappointing

This has the makings of a train wreck.

Oh well, they’ve still got more than a year to get their act together… and it seems they’re going to need the time.

Meanwile, Apple’s Tiger is set to roar !

Slashdot: Microsoft Demands Removal Of Longhorn Images

Paul Thurrott discusses it on his site, [with 12 pages of comments!] stating that Microsoft never told anyone beforehand not to post screenshots of the publicly available beta, and links to the new galleries he has up now. ‘Enjoy it while it lasts.’”

Then there’s the Google cache which still affords a means of viewing the images (until they are re/moved)

Gotto love the menu button “Shut Do…”
LOL!
and the scrollbar in the menu!
