When the next release of Windows comes - what will you do?

My spin:Microsoft continues on the path for the next version of Windows, code named Longhorn. While there's so many that use Windows 98, and many now use XP and 2000 - businesses should start thinking of what they will invest in over the next 2 years or so.

HOWEVER, YOU must consider a) the investment of time and money to upgrade b) is what you have now (XP and/or 2000) working sufficiently for you?

News Clip: Reuters: Microsoft Corp. said on Tuesday that it is reshuffling its Windows business and creating a new group that would dedicate itself to developing Windows, the world's largest software maker's core operating system.

A new group, the Windows Core Operating System Division, will focus its efforts on developing technology for the next release of Windows, code-named Longhorn, Jim Allchin, group vice president in charge of Microsoft Platforms Group, said in a memo sent to employees. (full story)
