Birka:
ajánlom neked is a Thurrot-féle webet,
azon belül is a Longhorn FAQ-ot, ami szól a
Palladiumról és a Blackcombról is.

A Blackcombról röviden:
Q:
I thought the next version of Windows was code-named
"Blackcomb."
A:
(...) Microsoft executive vice president Jim Allchin
verified that a new interim release, Longhorn, would
ship before Blackcomb. (...) The Longhorn wave will
include a minor Windows Server update, and Blackcomb
will be the next major Windows Server update. Details
on Blackcomb, obviously, are sketchy at this point.
"Another major release of Windows Server will
follow Windows Server 2003; it is code named
Blackcomb. We do not have a firm release date at this
time, and Microsoft will determine a release timeframe
based on what customers tell us they require."
At the May 2003 WinHEC 2003 trade show, Microsoft
executive David Thompson said that Blackcomb would
ship about 2-3 years after Longhorn and would feature
new versions of the so-called out-of-band technologies
the company is shipping throughout 2003 for Windows
Server 2003.
These technologies include, among others,
the iSCSI initiator in June,
NAS 3.0 in Q2 2003,
Automated Deployment Services (ADS) in Q3 2003,
Small Business Server 2003 in Q3 2003,
Virtual Server in Q4 2003,
and the AMD/64-bit version of Windows Server 2003,
while will be delivered "in Service Pack 1 for
Windows Server 2003 by the end of 2003,"
Thompson said.
