Windows guru Paul Thurrott writes that word has come down from on high at Microsoft that Longhorn WILL ship on May 26, 2006. When I think about this, I see that scene from the Ten Commandments, where Charlton Heston as Moses, comes down from Mount Sinai carrying the stone tablets. I can't picture BillG as Moses. I see the scene from History of the World, Part 1, where Mel Brooks is Moses and says, "I give you these 15 Commandments", then drops one of the tablets and it breaks. He then says, "I give you these 10 Commandments". Longhorn is a HUGE undertaking and that ship date is still a year and a half away. I see the tablet being dropped and ship date slipping.
