Keep wishing. I recently used a Live CD of SuSE 9.0. It is fantastic - and could kick Longhorns saggy ass in a fight ... and they have SuSE 9.1 coming out in may already. Think of how droolingly beautiful SuSE would be by the time Longhorn eventually gets released, think of what other Linux distros would be around by then. Think of how advanced Linux distros would be. While Microsoft is seemingly taking years just over one project, the Linux community are churning out more stable, user friendly, non memory hogging distros and version upgrades in the matter of mere months or even weeks, and that also won't bankrupt users. Even the SuSE 9.1 Personal version is out in May, and is set to cost only up to £30 maximum.
