Anxiously awaiting this...
I have been waiting with much anxiety for this. I have my MCSE's and MCSD's on full scale alert for the latest hardware specifications. I have also contacted my hardware rep and DEMANDED immediate information as to where they are with Longhorn drivers. I will not settle for Windows XP style emulation drivers. That legacy stuff is for the birds. My MS rep has promised me information as soon as it is publicly available. My friends, we are upon the most important technical innovation in the history of mankind.
