Well, the internal debate over whether to deliver a Windows Server update in the Longhorn timeframe is apparently over. According to sources in and close to Microsoft, the software giant is now working on a version of Longhorn Server that will succeed Windows Server 2003 and precede Blackcomb. Longhorn Server will provide customers with the important core technologies from Longhorn, including a .NET-based user interface and graphics library called Avalon, a SQL Server "Yukon"-based file system add-on called Windows Future Storage (WinFS), and low-level anti-virus APIs, among other features. Currently, Longhorn Server is still considered a minor update, however, and not a major update like Blackcomb.

Rick Finkelstein, president and chief operating officer of Universal Pictures, said he did not expect this episode to significantly alter the studio's marketing procedures. "We are constantly evaluating our internal security measures, and we are always seeing areas where we can improve our security," he said. "This will have a significance, but we don't want to blow it out of proportion."
Gonzalez entered his guilty plea to United States Magistrate Judge Gabriel Gorenstein. He is scheduled to be sentenced September 26.
An insurance underwriter, Gonzalez told the judge that he knew what he was doing was wrong. Asked by reporters afterward whether he liked the movie, Gonzalez said: "I haven't even watched it."

If Blackcomb is currently considered to be a major update, what's the point of working on Longhorn Server? I think Windows 2003 is suffice until the final release of Blackcomb Server.
Also I can't think of many programs that are not compatible with all their OS's.
