Just about a year ago, we saw the first “Dragon” prototypes at Computex, but a year came and went and no retail cases ever came to the US. Apparently, there were some structural problems with the case and a revision had to be completed. The Dragon 2 aims to correct these problems, although some of the “wow” factor has definitely diminished.

Windows has had software RAID 5 for years, too...ProviaFan - Thursday, June 2, 2005 - link
Which brings to mind that I seem to recall the Server editions of Windows being able to do software RAID as well...bersl2 - Thursday, June 2, 2005 - link
Um... I think some fact checking needs to be done about this statement:"While BSD operating systems have enjoyed Raid 5 software RAID via the OS for years, Linux and Windows have not been as fortunate."
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-0.4x-HOWTO...
This old document puts RAID 5 in the kernel, in a working, if not feature-complete, form in 1997 (2.1.63).

This more recent version of the HOWTO places an updated version of RAID at no later than Jan. 2001 (2.4.0---and that's not counting it being in any development series kernels).

Yeah, I wonder where all these high-res displays are that Longhorn is supposedly going to support...Thanks anyway for the comprehensive coverage!

Nice coverage. Wonder what´s wrong with the LCD guys though.
