    Most of what I see there is stuff that can already be done in XP using 3rd party software or just tweaking it.

    Still cool though :-)

    Basically all those shots showed were the new graphics of XP. I would turn those off anyway, if there is a way.

    Are you sure these screenshots were not just doctered?
    It is a little blurry but there is the "Windows XP" title. I have a clearer version but I cannot upload it to Zeropaid because of the size but click LilBlueDawg's link and see for yourselves.
    Just my observation...

    These are unquestionably fake. In various shots you see the OS named:
    Windows Codename: Longhorn
    Windows XP Professional
    Windows XP Media Center Edition
    Microsoft Longhorn XP Professional
    Microsoft Longhorn XP Media Center Edition
    Somehow I doubt one OS version would describe itself as all of these. Also hard to believe is that Microsoft would actually refer to their beta as "Codename Longhorn".

    Question what would be the point

    What would be the point of faking screenshots of Longhorn?
