Windows users, will you switch to LONGHORN when it comes out?

[Chunkee]

Wondering if there will be any reall advantages other than the aesthetics.

I will have to see.

Probably.

Probably.

 

[Whitecloak]

yup

 

[Chunkee]

i will use my action pack

 

[preslove]

Where's the pohaole?

 

[Crucial]

It's going to be just like every other release. Some will say it's the best thing ever. Some will say it sucks and broke their computer. And the rest won't care one way or another.

 

[StageLeft]

Not if I have to pay anything.

 

[Hyperblaze]

not unless i'm absolutely forced too.

There will probably be again some ridiculus licencing agreement again to go by.

Hopefully by the time Longhorn comes out, all my systems will be all gentoo/bsd.

Now that they don't come out with a new version of windows every 2-3 years, I probably will. Back in the day where they seemed to upgrade every 2 years it was far too expensive to keep up.

 

[elektrolokomotive]

not until it's stable. Probably about 1 1/2 - 2 years after release.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

Why would we? I mean, sure we've got the Action Pack, but there's no reason to upgrade.

This is my prerequsit for it as well.

 

[radioouman]

yes. but only if it is free.

 

[dabuddha]

I haven't seen much about Longhorn. How does it differ from XP?

 

[nakedfrog]

Probably eventually.

Here at home I'm on Win2k, and it's working just fine. Unless longhorn offers some dazzling new USEFUL features (and not some uglyass Fisher-Price(tm) interface), I won't bother.

Hyperblaze got lost and meant to post this here:
