I heard too many bad things about it already so I gave up reading about it.

The file system is supposed to have a layer of SQL Server-ish features to make it faster and more accessible. Last I heard, target is for release Q3 '05.

Just keep your eye on http://www.winsupersite.com.

Paul usually posts updates when he gets them.

EDIT: Speaking of which, check out the links on that site to PDC2003; there are about 3 pages of screenshots from Longhorn 4051 they released to attendees.
