		In the infamous windows transition effect demo, in which a window being dragged across the screen visually resembles a curtain moving around in the breeze (Figure), Hammil showed off how windows could be arbitrarily animated.
		Longhorn, like previous Windows versions, is the result of work from many teams at the software giant, and as is so often the case, much of that work isn't melded into the main builds until it's reached a certain level of stability and functionality.

		Windows is a good product, and it is exciting to know that they are taking time to get it right, however it will make it 3-4 years between releases and I am not sure they can hold off Linux that long.
