probably a NTFS variant, nothing special
looks smoother and cleaner than regular XP, but who knows
i heard it also has support for 64 bit processing. |

Actually, the new file system will be completely different.
Check out this interview with Bill Gates;
Bill Gates Interview
Below is the part that talks about longhorn;
MM: Will this whole new platform really take shape in Longhorn? [Ed. Note: Longhorn is a future release of the Microsoft Windows OS and will include major changes to the Windows code base.]
BG: That's right. You are seeing significant pieces of this platform on the server with ASP.Net, Visual Studio.Net, and SPOT. You will see it in so-called managed code, and in things that make it easy to write Web services. But there are parts of this new architecture—the rich messaging layer and the store—that won't show up until the Longhorn time frame. There will be a new file system derived from WFS.
MM: What's WFS?
BG: It's the Windows File System. The new Windows file system is much, much, more than a file system. It's not just a database, and it's not just a file system. It's a new thing. |
