You have seen a pre-alpha version of the upcoming Longhorn, that looks a 
little bit to what Longhorn will be. I have seen it too, and played with it. 
It is pretty much Windows XP with a different interface and some add-ons to 
make XAML work, rudimentary. It is *not* Longhorn. By 2006 --which by MS time 
system it might as well be 2010-- things would have changed quite a bit...
