Longhorn Build 5048 at WinHEC

So after getting all the hardware happy, the first thing you'll notice is the look. Here we have Aero, Longhorn's current suit of clothes. Its gray, basic but easy on the eyes (olive green should have never happened). While temporary, Aero is in an intrem state until DWM/Avalon is fully supported. Those that were around in the Whistler days will remember the many different suits MS tried on before settling on the rather benign Blue, Silver, and Olive Green themes. I took a peek into the Themes directory, it appears things are not quite the same as in the past, but still recognizable. I'm sure that will soon be cracked wide open.
