QUOTE Well, it’s official at any rate. Contrary to what you’ve heard, Windows Vista will not be shipping with any of the original technologies, features, capabilities, or subsystems originally promised. First it was the real Aero – complete visual control over one’s system. Amazing graphics, sidebars that were a part of the Windows Core, Aero Diamond. Then it was NGSCB and its amazing security features – not DRM, but total privacy control; your privacy. Monad. Last we heard, it was WinFS, the king-pin feature that was promised to change the way you think of data… And now the last one is gone: Microsoft Max is dead. More @ Neosmart Tech Via - Neowin.net Its very sad to here this tbh. I was expecting some good stuff from it and now this is even gone.

Well I sort-of posted it in the Windows Mesa thread.
But nonetheless, it's really quite sad. It was an awesome project. It had the mood that is still a bit evident in Windows Live, especially the error pages (which I can't remember the exact path of right now). -------------------- |

Max isn't dead, it will become a part of Windows Live.
