The Windows Future Storage (WinFS) technology is making good progress and will be included in a "Longhorn wave" of products, although it's still not going to be ready for the Windows Longhorn client release in 2006, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said at the Gartner Symposium and ITxpo 2004. In a wide-ranging discussion with Gartner analysts Darryl Plummer and Thomas Bittman, Ballmer also touched on competition with Linux, 64-bit prospects and software piracy.
