![]() ![]() Well nice, but MacOsX does this, and has been doing it for a while. #OS X ROADMAP PLANNER PASSWORD#The screen shot show a window requiring the user to enter his password before intsalling an app. The idea is that users will feel safe, and they will be able to undo any action, further strengthening the security aura.” #OS X ROADMAP PLANNER CODE#However, Longhorn’s warning notifications can occur because of local code as well, and not just because of Internet-based communications, as in XP SP2. – “As with Windows XP SP2, Longhorn will provide strong security warnings and guidance when it detects errant actions. If you notice the comments in winsupersite, we seee: But saying that Longhorn will be a all new breakthrough operating system is a joke. #OS X ROADMAP PLANNER PC#Sorry to say that Longhorn seems to be a significant step for pc users only. At least I can see 2 different variations of icons that look like snapshots from the file.Īnyway, we’ll see some more hopefully at this year’s HEC. I can’t really see clear from those screenshots, but it _looks_ like Longhorn will display icons as actual snapshot of the files. I can see mspaint hasn’t been upgraded (yet) Besides calc, I think that’s the only application without modifications since Win3.11. At least it looks like a stripped down Word. Apparently this is a sign Microsoft will ship (from what it looks) a decent word processor. NET as everything else.Īnd surprised no one saw the ‘Text Writer’ and ‘Paintbrush’ applications running. That is nonsene, Win32 as well as Win16 (to some degree) is fully suported under Longhorn, but it will run wrapped in. In know alot has been said about the interface in this discussion, but this is the first time I’ve read that backwards compatibility will suffer to a great degree… current MS-entrenched businesses won’t like that at all. ![]() That’s all fine and well but what does that have to do with my x86 PC? You know, maybe you should take a look at AmigaOS 4 and see what “a bunch” of people are doing and compare it to Apple. It looks like there are some features in Longohorn that will also be in Tiger the difference is that Tiger ships in a few weeks.īy the time Longhorn comes out, MacOSX 10.5 will most likely ALREADY have shipped and Apple will be already hot on the development of 10.6. It will, just no one has seen the 3D Aero interface yet. I thought longhorn was going to have 3-d features built into it. None of this will probably be it (although I hope they keep the translucency )īTW, I have to mention this. I’m quite confident they want to keep the ‘Aero surprise’ as late as possible before shipping. If you go through Thurrott’s Longhorn alpha gallery you can MS changing the theme like 10 times. If I’m not mistaken there was a news a few days ago saying Microsoft will not reveal the “final” (3D) UI until September this year. In fact the ‘synchronize’ window is almost the same as the one from 2003. BTW people chill out, Microsoft showed that “Finder” screenshot like 2 years ago if I’m not mistaken. ![]()
