"vaporware" it is
Those same posters said it was better than OS X, although
only one actually exists an will have at least 2 releases
before Longhorn makes it out.

I'm looking forward to the day when I go into windows
explorer to open a file, do my search, and have to find my
file in the google-like 2 million entries that match my
query.

Making the OS this useless will have everyone leave
windows. Without the computer intelligently
comprehending the content of the documents this idea is
doomed to failure. Reminds me of that helpful little
paperclip in Office 2000.
