Overview: Microsoft has released a newer build of Longhorn (5048) and made it available to attendees of WinHEC 2005. In this white paper the author explains about the current build of Longhorn and examines some of the changes to the Windows UI. While this build is not specifically designed for end users, it’s worth a look, especially if a person is looking forward to the next release of Windows. Longhorn build 5048 was designed primarily for device driver writers and, as such, does not focus on the user interface experience.
