A little fun with the next version of Windows

Posted on July 25, 2005 under Uncategorized

I’m a geek, so I like to keep track of technology trends for fun. Luckily, I can use my fun in my work (I *heart* multipurpose tasks!), especially by tracking trends that might just affect the library world.

Now that the official name of Longhorn, the codename for the next release of the Microsoft Windows operating system (it’s new name: Windows Vista), has been let out of the bag, the world has begun to have a little fun with it.

Apparently, a beta release will be available August 3, 2005 to “developers and IT professionals.” I’m wondering if techie librarians can get in on the action, too…
