Bill:

Thanks for pointing out this article. I finally followed it through to
the end (I get the paper version). Jon Udell is a favorite writer of
mine, as he not only writes well, but he's a techie who programs,
manipulates XML and XSLT, and understands what he's talking about. The
conclusion was devastating:

"Longhorn would make perfect sense in an alternate universe where the
Web never happened, where phones stayed dumb, and where Windows
applications owned the edge of the network. But in this universe
nothing owns the edge. "

There was a lot of material in the article I found helpful. I just
can't understand what Microsoft thinks it's doing.
