Microsoft To Embed Windows Hypervisor In Longhorn By 2010

In a recent CRN article about Xen, Paula Rooney wrote:
Microsoft announced plans this year to integrate a virtualization hypervisor directly into Release 2 of its Windows Longhorn Server operating system ename Longhorn Server release, which should mean around 2008.

This could make the release schedule look like this:
• 2006 - New Virtual Server (actually referred as vNext)
• 2007 - Longhorn Server
• 2008 - Windows Hypervisor (coming in a Service Pack format?)
• 2010 - Longhorn Server R2 (embedding Windows Hypervisor R2?)
