Remembering the Future

Longhorn glossary Looking at the number of posts I want to do on the new Microsoft technologies released at the PDC, I thought that a 'Longhorn'-Era glossary (originally posted here) would be helpful in decoding some of the terms I may use in my blog entries. Here they are in no particular order:
"Longhorn" (code name): The next major release of the Microsoft Windows operating system. This is slated for release around 2006 (possibly Q3/Q4 of 2005) if the beta testing goes well.
"Aero" (code name): Longhorn 3D-rendering user interface
