I'm sure you guys know of Paul Thurrot, right? Famous Windows fanboy? winsupersite.com? The "Apple copied Microsoft in everything" and "Microsoft is the leader in innovation" and "Windows is superior to Linux" guy?

In the cold light of morning, I'm reflecting a bit on Longhorn 5048. My thoughts are not positive, not positive at all. This is a painful build to have to deal with after a year of waiting, a step back in some ways. I hope Microsoft has surprises up their sleeves. This has the makings of a train wreck.

pwned

Too bad it offers little improvement over the last build, because this was the last build. Screenshot taken from my PC.

It is a biuld for hardware & driver developers.

Why the fuck would you expect eye candy?

Because 'of course Microsoft will have early builds perfectly working'.

I know, I'm just amused at Thurrott.

"Windows rules, Linux sucks, Mac sucks, Windows rules, Windows rules, Longhorn rules, Longhorn's gonna blow away everyone else, and- GEEZ THIS SUCKS!"

The guy really changes his mind fast

Take everything from him with a large dose of salt.
