With its most compelling OS release since Windows 95 in the can, Microsoft is heading down a familiar path, laying plans for the future of Windows XP, including the upcoming Service Pack (SP1) release. According to the company, XP SP1 testing will precede a beta for Longhorn, the next client release of Windows, which Microsoft chairman Bill Gates said was due in 2003. Concurrently, many of the enterprise-oriented XP beta testers have been moved over to the Windows .NET Server beta; this product will hit Beta 3 soon and ship by mid-2002.
