Longhorn Reloaded

[ViolentJ]

Longhorn Reloaded is a Project dedicated to the revival of the Operating System known as Code Name "Longhorn". To put the projects aims simply, we aim to finish off what Microsoft started before the operating system was canceled. It is a modification of Windows 6.0.4074, which was originally released during the 2004 Windows Hardware Engineers Conference.

It's a free download if anyone fancies trying it. How long it stays available I don't know, surprised MS hasn't had it closed down yet.

What he means is that this is something to complete all the original aims/features (well a lot of them) that longhorn had.

They projected it would take too long for them to complete it and so opted down the vista route in teh end (MS i mean).

I remember downloading a very old beta of longhorn.
