The blog Microsoft Kitchen (motto: "Serving up some seriously tasty Microsoft," which for some inexplicable reason creeps me out) posted two roadmap slides--purportedly shown by Microsoft during PDC 2009 in Los Angeles-- suggesting that both the next Windows Server and Windows 8 would be released in 2012.

My father loved more than anything to work outside in wet weather. Beginning at daylight he'd go out in dripping brush to mow or pull weeds for hog and chickens.

That means, of course, that it's time to start thinking about Windows 8. Too soon, you say? The rumor-mill has it that Redmond is already planning the next version of its desktop OS. The other week, the LinkedIn page for one Robert Morgan,...
