Corporate IT professionals hoping to do some long-term planning for the next major Windows release got no definitive answers at ITxpo.
Analysts gave the Longhorn client operating system a 50% probability of shipping in the first half of 2005 (40% in the second half of 2004),
and they projected that the Longhorn server operating system won't hit the market until 2006.

Apparently they are up to Beta3 now. (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver/longhorn/audsel.mspx - no date on page :()
So when do we get to upgrade our servers?

PS. Don't trust an analyst ...
