Could there be a Windows Server "Shorthorn" in your future? Microsoft says the possibility isn"t out of the question.
The later Longhorn gets, the more Microsoft is struggling with how to deliver to customers new features that are ready to go.
On the heels of acknowledging last week that Microsoft might release an interim version of the Windows client before Longhorn, Redmond officials said the company will likely release an interim update on the server side.
"It is likely we will do an update to Windows Server 2003 some time before Longhorn Server ships," said Jeff Price, senior director for Windows server product management. "We are still working through the list of current and future technologies that would be included."
