---------------------
It's NOT a new filesystem.
---------------------
Then why is it called "FS" ??????????
---------------------
Marketing. WinFS sounds sexy. It will get the Windows geeks
talking about the revolutionary never-before-seen features, and when the
Windows geeks are lusting over the next version of Windows, they 'ain't
convertin' to Linux.
---------------------
It's the old bait and switch. Now that WinFS has served its
purpose, it's being moved back to the _next_ version of Windows after
Longhorn. But don't worry, Longhorn+1 will be the best version of Windows
EVER! It has this revolutionary new filesystem, WinFS. It will also be
faster, easier to use, more compatible and more secure! Why risk changing to
another operating system when the next version of Windows will be everything
you have ever wanted, AND MORE?
---------------------
You're absolutely right.
This has been Bill Gate's marketing approach since Day One
at Microsoft.
Read the biographies of him. They say the exact same thing.
Every time Microsoft customers get antsy, he comes out with "Stay the course!
The next one will be dynamite!"
I think George Bush learned it from him. Iraq didn't turn
out well? Well, relax, Iran will be much better! And wait until you see North
Korea!
