What I am reading

Not quite ready for Longhorn

From what I see, Longhorn looks incredible.  However, I am disappointed that all of the .NET technical magazines we subscribe to are now 80% + Longhorn articles. 

I am still learning .NET.  I have approx 1 1.5 years of development left on our current project with .NET and I'd still like to see articles on .NET development.   I am actually thinking about canceling our subscription for the next 1-2 years.

Yes, I know I need to learn Longhorn.  But not at this moment.  In fact, I have 4-5 current magazines laying on a bookshelf collecting dust as they contain 100% Longhorn articles.

Yeah, especially since Longhorn won't see the light of day until late 2005 or 2006!

Totally agree with you... I don't even read Visual Studio Magazine anymore.

I'm completely with you on this one. And it's not just Longhorn, it's Whidbey and Asp.Net 2.0 also. Apparently everyone on the planet is an expert on .Net 1.1, no further documentation necessary.
