Looks like Windows XP on steroid. I noticed IE got a  new facelift, has pop-up blocks but it is still below the norm other browsers like Mozilla have.

As for the 3D GUI, I learn it required a powerful PC to do basic thing like rotating thus wondering how Microsoft team implement their program. I hear Blender used to show the 3D GUI demo until they went    OSS. Franky, even a console like Nintendo 64 can do similar thing without asking too much resource.

As for the sidebar, it is nothing new.

Overall, by the time Longhorn will be available, Linux distros like Fedora will already render it obsolete since they got rid XFree86 (due to their licenses incompatible with GPL).

Wow! Just like Expos

And 3D is better why? I mean, does it come with a free pair of 3D glasses?
