The saga of the revolutionized file system for Windows continues
Almost two years ago, I read an interesting article by Joe Barr, titled Linux cannot compete with Longhorn, in which he was explaining that Linux couldn’t compete with the new version of Windows as what was promised was essentially vaporware.
He was illustrating this by explaining how, since 1994, every next version of Windows promises a big step forward regarding file systems, and every time this major feature ends up being pulled out. It looks like WinFS is indeed following this pattern for Vista.
