Description:

Video project about the operating system that never saw the light of day and as a result of this chaos reigning in the company, Windows Vista was released. In this video we'll look at the history of Windows Longhorn: how it was created and developed, how the key builds looked and worked, why there was a "reboot" of the project and why the name was changed, and find out what we end up with in all of this.
