Windows Server 'Longhorn' Updated
by Nate Mook
As Windows Vista Release Candidate 1 signals the new operating system is nearing its release, Microsoft is still hard at work on the next version of Windows Server, still code-named "Longhorn." The company over the weekend released an August CTP.
Build 5560 is an update to Windows Server "Longhorn" Beta 2, and includes few new features. The development team has instead focused on performance and reliability improvements, including all of the core operating system changes that were also made in Windows Vista. MSDN and TechNet subscribers can download the new release now.

Can't wait for the new names like "Windows Vista Server 2007 Premium Ulimate Extras Edition" Stupid crap. Just call it Windows Server 6.0. No, wait, it'll be something like Windows Longhorn Server Pre-RC1, Pre-CTP, Pre-RTM. The programmers are locked away, fed through small holes by the Marketing pukes that have taken over.

Their programmers get straws?
Mine have to get up at 4 am, 1 hour before they go to bed, eat rusty nails for breakfast through a rolled up blade of switch-grass, and program for twenty seven hours a day.
Your programmers are *lucky* to have straws.

This is the OS to look forward to ... not the overly hyped vista
