As for me, I decided I'd had enough of Windows a while back and switched to OS X instead, makes my life a lot easier (no crashes, viruses, spyware etc).

I was hoping that Longhorn would have included the new object database architecture, because I'm more than sure it would have been a serious disaster for Microsoft. My feeling is that .net is still far ahead of it's time, and won't fly just yet. They've been having nothing but problems with it, and having mixed its use into their new OS would have certainly added a ton of fuel to the fire as it pissed off more and more SOHO and home users.
