I cant wait to see video of Aero. The people reporting for Winformant seem to be impressed and amazed, I just wanna see it in action.

I must say reading those MSDN articles on Aero, that I am eagerly awaiting this revolution...

Pardon me, i don't feel like reading 9 pages now! :p I am curious, does this thread contain much information from Bill's presentation? I can imagine there is lots of 'info' about the 4051 leak here, but i am more keen to read / hear what's been said at the presentation itself!

Thanks, ...'a keen Longhorn follower, using OS X' :p :D

Cheers. Oh, and is there any Official pics or 'stuff' released, beyond text, regarding this build?

Thanks for your time tho, appreciated

Question for anyone who is running this build. I've used the older one and I do have this one does it support the nForce network card yet at all? The older builds were never ble to even see it even if I installed the drivers.

[mdtaUK]

the msdn articles include screenshots of the interface and some of the aero features

[session]

http://msdn.microsoft.com/longhorn/ is online and have some few screenshots of Longhorn...with Aero! :D

i don't think it's aero!

[SidVicious]

i don't think it's aero!

Read and pay attention;);)

nope it still has problems with the nForce NIC, after installation of nForce drivers, it does show up but it states device has problems blah blah blah.....

we'll just have to wait till it hits beta stage.

Hey guys, Jim Allchin's transcript is now up @ http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/exec/Ji.../10-27pdc03.asp. Please beware. This was a 4 hour keynote address. ;-) It is a very long read.

and boo@ iPod. I already synch'd to my Pocket PC so I could read in style (ClearType) and/or listen to music if I wish. I'm so not into single-purpose handheld devices anymore.

Aero Rock Video from the winsuper site Enjoy! You can thank Paul Thurrott. Pay close attention to the frosted glass effects around the windows. That is what Longhorn will most likely look like. Edited October 28, 2003 by Jstphish

Check out a quick lo-quality AVI of the Amazon.com CTO showing off their prototype rich client that taps into "Avalon": http://www.hanselman.com/blog/content/bina...ry/CIMG0701.AVI. Check out Scott Hanselman's blog @ http://www.hanselman.com/blog/.

[Paulstorm]

thx Jstphish! was waiting to see his videos...

[QuarterSwede]

No, Thank you Trade Wind, I hadn't seen that video yet. Now I can see what they are going to do with 3D windows, nice effect. The internet is going to change and I, for one, can't wait.

[itsnotabigtruck]

LOL, I'm installing Longhorn on Virtual PC right now. :p

[vjsz]

[Hiro P.]

eh....wasn't all that :no:

[DiEMOS]

thanx, but no thanx....stick to the original PDC thead n00b :p

[Manicdvln]

This has nothing to do with longhorn PDC, but has relevance to the PDC convention, so me posting this on that topic would be considered off-topic.

[Cowpie]

Aww cmon, atleast hes trying...
