So, instead of having a delayed product, they are going to do a half-ass job.

Great idea Microsoft. :rolleyes:

You wait till I fully learn how to use Linux, then its bye bye Windoze.

hmm...well this was something what we could expect...

i just wonder where the direction of windows xp & xp 64 and the whole hardware market is going...
when longhorn will not be finished until 2006 will we see a full round up for xp in the meantime? and if so what about windows xp 64...will the whole 64bit platform be whiped out by the new upcoming btx form factor or intels alderwood/grantsdale chipset or socket 775...will intel produce 64bit cpus then? how will amd react to this? will the whole market switch to 64bit?

questions after questions....
