Microsoft Windows Longhorn 5048 Screenshots (Direct Loading)

oh wow!! thats damn sexy! :X
hehe..now i know what my computer upgrade should be like to suit LH.
i especially liked that 3d window. its so cool.

btw, how come the minimum processor requirement is a 0.0 Ghz CPU? is it a bug in the beta?

Sree u have a superb eye. he he he

Excellent Job done.

I also posted kinda same thing yesterday just after this news on WinBETA here ..nyways...
Hmmm...Installation UI is almost same as Build: 4074... The VS shown at WinHCE in Seattle is Aero > Default... there's one more substyle of Aero... which looks like kinda this: Called Aero Glass

Screenshots removed.

Hey can any one tell me where can you get a copy of Long Horn. Only a Genuine one please.
Also can you download it from MSDN?? I do have MSDN Subscription, but was unable to find it. So please gimme the links.

rajas you have MSDN subscription wow.

As far as I know only Beta versions are availale for MSDN subscribers. I think this 5048 is a pre-beta release. Not sure.

Man they are siomply awesome, all my computer upgrades on hold, waiting for the Official System Requirements for Longhorn

is it really possible that we can use this os for 10 years means how can we Or may be microsoft is planning to release the nxt windows after 10 years and making us feel that we should be using this OS for 10 years.
OH i didnt want that

@Kannan

Thanks dude, yes I have MSDN and TechNet too. So working on with various versions. Until last month MS included LH in MSDN download, now i donn find it anymore.

Click to expand...

Longhorn is also a codename, the name for Windows next version will be decided later, as MS says

I heard/read a cool reason why they codenamed it Longhorn... don't know its true or not...

Naturally it comes in mind that it was named after LONGHORN ; a kind of BULL with HUGE HORNS... but... it's not the actual reason!

There's a sking point near Redmond, WA.. there's a sking supply shop named LONGHORN... when MS finished XP and started working for next version of Windows... in winter tht year they visited that point... and they liked the name of the shop there... and this is how they codenamed it ... and the LONGHORN LOGO also comes from logo of that sking supply shop
