That would have been better off than what Microsoft ended up with. Remember the Longhorn betas before they did the code dump? It was pretty awesome. What we have now is New! and Rebuilt From The Ground Up! Probably not the best idea
I dunno about that. Happens I watched a video on BeOS this morning about how that OS in its day did an AWESOME job with multitasking even high bandwidth video and audo in multiple windows and on some pretty low end hardware. It was built from the ground up to do that and using pre-emptive interrupts and (I forget the term) multithreading. It was VERY impressive. Of course, M$ did not build it and it did not need to be backward compatible with anything. -- The nice part about being a pessimist is that you are constantly being either proven right or pleasantly surprised. - George F.
