It all just boils down to a complexity issue. The
more lines of code there is, the more bugs there will
be because the opportunity for them also increases.
And with tentative specs like those below, I'll
guarentee (and so would probably everyone on this
list) that Longhorn's going to be overly
complex...probably more so than ever before. Hell, if
Win2000 shipped with a ball park figure of 66,000 bugs
in it, I can't wait to hear what Lornhorn will have.
But hopefully by then, I'll be fully converted away
from MS.
