About LinkBacksI stumbled upon these screenshots of Longhorn, the next-generation Windows OS at ExtremeTech.
Guess where Bill gets all his "innovation" from. Transparent windows, drop shadows, cool colors, window management--sounds familiar, no? :evil:

my guess I believe MS is using the Macintosh group of MS software developers to give ideas on how to make longhorn like OS X.
The trick here is to make windows users feel like using Mac Os X. hehehehe

iNOTE:
if you look carefully on the wallpaper in some of the screenshots you'll notice that the orginally overly-green, funguslike, grass is now brown. maybe an indication of ideas drying up? :lol:

Their idea of "expose" comes from Sun's Looking Glass -- there is one option that I like about Looking Glass -- the ability to turn over a window and post a note on it. I am sure xineizer can give us a demo.

That's something us OSX users will forever be deprived of... hehehe

Apple will preview Tiger at it's Worldwide Developer Conference in San Francisco on June 28. If they follow the schedule they had for Panther last year, you can expect the final version around October or November.
