longhorn using unix kernel?

[Win2k3EE]

:D

I believe Windows Longhorn will be based on Windows Server 2003, which is the most stable Windows ever.

Hell YaH I AGREE to that By then .NET will be integrated into the next upcoming Windows!

Longhorn WILL BE BASED ON *nix like kernel

Why am I so sure? Because it will be based on NT kernel from R2 and as you know, N-Ten was programmed by unix programmers (which was clever move from Microsoft)

[jeeva]

EXACTLY, what I wanted to say.

AFAIK, there are two kernels used by Microsoft, the DOS and the NT-Kernel, with modifications, so if M$ would take DOS kernel, they are very stupid!!!

So whatever comes, it will be based on UNIX in fact.

The last OS based on something like dos kernel was Windows ME. NO CHANCE they will return back (specially with next-gen OS like Longhorn)

[jeeva]

thats for sure!

hi

when microsoft uses unix then the security will be more increased..

longing for longhorn...

any link plz reply...

sheik...

[Martin Zugec]

Oh my...

Longhorn IS NOT using unix kernel. NT kernel long years ago was designed by unix designers (NT kernel for old NT OSs), so it is not new stuff!

now now peoples...

The build 5048 is more likely Windows XP, even use the XP's welcome screen

[redder]

If they integrate UNIX kernel or any even open source code we would never know! Its not like windows source code is available for us to see whats in it, so why not add some UNIX kernel if the chances to improve this OS were greater no one would ever find out?
