ENT News | at | by Mike
Microsoft is now developing the Windows "Longhorn" server and Windows "Longhorn" client in lockstep, a change from the staggered development the company was previously pursuing for its next generation version of Windows, a senior Microsoft executive said Tuesday.
"Today, 'Longhorn' client, 'Longhorn' server are generally connected together. We're building it in synch. That was a change. Perhaps a year ago that wasn't our plan, but it is our plan today," Jim Allchin, Microsoft group vice president for platforms, said during his keynote address at the Windows Hardware Engineering Conference in Seattle.
