Windows leaks or peeks?
ZDNet | at | by Mike
Microsoft has had some trouble holding on to its software lately, with versions of popular programs finding their way on to the Internet before their intended release. An early test version of the next major release of Windows leaked onto the Net, offering a glimpse of the company's plans for the new software. The leaked version of the upcoming desktop operating system, code-named Longhorn, hints of major changes under the Windows hood, including a new file system with enhanced storage capabilities. Known as Windows Future Storage, the new means for storing, accessing or indexing files will replace NTFS and FAT32, the predecessors used by Windows XP.
Microsoft did not identify the source of the leak, which is still circulating on the Web and on Internet relay chat, but say the leaked version of Longhorn is authentic.
