5 Myths About 'Wronghorn'

They aren't calling it "Palladium" anymore. Of course they say it won't require "whatever" to run, but it will require "whatever" if you want to access all of its new features. (Which really means it will require "whatever" in order to run :mad: ).
Regardless, you can expect shit-loads of bloat. That's what M$ does best. I have an old Dell Dimension (Pentium I (113MHz), 2.0GB HD, 1.5GB HD, 64MB RAM, 2.0MB RAM Vid Card) that originally came with Win 95, and which couldn't run XP even if I wanted to. However, it runs Slackware 9.0 with KDE 3.1 just fine. When Wronghorn finally does come out, I'm betting that my new Micron Millenia Xtreme won't have enough to run the damn thing, but I except that "Slackware 12.0" or "Mandrake 16.2" will run, no problem.

This is where linux might be able to catch up to the commercial Operating Systems. Linux improves at a much faster rate than most OS's. Its open and free structure allows new versions every 6 months. XP came out in 2001, and Longhorn comes out in 2006, so two versions in 5 years isnt exactly fast progress.

If it does come out in 2006. you gotta love those M$ children. When we say that M$ is totaly shit with real life proof. They jump up and down saying its total BS while they don't mind lying about m$ so they can keep their delusioned thoughts intact.
Apparently there are people in this world more stupid than that of a standard chicken!
:D
