Defintely a disappointing news...
Longhorn was originally supposed to have three major changes: a new file system, WinFS; a new graphics and presentation engine known as Avalon; and Indigo, a Web services and communication architecture. And with this announcement, one of the three is definitely delayed. Microsoft plan to release a beta version of WinFS when the Longhorn clients come out. This has been reportedly done to prevent any more major delays in the public release.[/b]
