Microsoft to Gut Longhorn to Make 2006 Delivery Date precedes WinFS Axed From Longhorn Client and Server.
The end result? Longhorn is going to be a lot more of an evolutionary than a revolutionary Windows release.
The end result? Even more time for Mac OS X to beat Windows to the punch. 2006? That's a Tiger + perhaps another release away.

Can we now state that Longhorn is officially Microsoft's Copland?

Wasn't WinXP also supposed to be revolutionary while WinMe was the precursor in the same vein as MacOS 9.2 to OS X?
I could be mistaken, but given Microsoft's track record-- it's possible I'm not far off from the truth.
