I have heard about the Windows Longhorn. I think thats right but will that be the next one? If so when will it come out?

no official release date.. maybe 2006 or 2007?

Longhorn is scheduled for late 2006 at the very very earliest. I'd imagine the next one after that won't be available until 2010, at the earliest. (When I say the next one, I'm not referring to a jazzed-up version of Longhorn.)

Sadly by the time Longhorn ships it'll already be somewhat out of date.

The next OS replacing Windows XP would be Windows Vista (codename "Longhorn").

There might be another Windows OS replacing Windows Vista in the future (possibly codename "Blackcomb")
