This may seemingly be a stupid question but I have to ask, what is Longhorn?


P.S. If this is posted inthe wrong section i'm sorry I didn't know where it should go!

Actually its also the Codename for Server 2008, so it technically still isn't out yet wink

Yeah, if I had to guess, I'd guess he's talking about the server.

Well I think even though it was the Codename for Server 2008, it was called Longhorn Server
Plus Server 2008 is the official name now so the Codename isn't used anymore
