Microsoft will start providing antivirus and antispyware updates for Windows users. The service call Windows OneCare will be a yearly subscription . I guess expecting the software giant to redesign IE and some elements of the Operating System would be too much.

Windows has been around too long and carries too much old code and design. Will Longhorn change much? I honestly doubt that it will. Did Windows XP change much? Nope. If you get rid of Luna (the visual style) and remove some digital camera and other drivers we’re pretty much looking at Windows 2000; with the exception that the latter was a bit more stable.

Anyway, I’ll still keeping using FireFox on Linux , Mac OS X and Windows .
