The Microsoft Roadmap Decoded

Just when I'm asked to start thinking about Technology Roadmaps, I find this great dissection of the Microsoft Technology Roadmap.  Some highlights:

Disappearing Code Names (Gone, But Not Forgotten)

Product Name/ "Code Name" Additional Info. Projected Ship Date
"Shorthorn" (33) Stopgap release of Windows client 2003
.Net My Services/ "Hailstorm" MS thought to be building many of these into future Windows editions 2004
"BizOffice" combo BizTalk-Office application for B2B 2003 (?)
