Microsoft schedules second Longhorn event
PC World | at | by Mike
Microsoft has set a date for a second Longhorn-themed Professional Developers Conference . The event will be held in September 2005, almost two years after the company first detailed the Windows XP successor at the 2003 PDC.
Longhorn has undergone a lot of changes since the unveiling. Microsoft has sacrificed some key advances it had planned for the operating system to be able to make a 2006 ship date. Also, Microsoft now plans to offer updates for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 to support technologies that previously were reserved for Longhorn.
