Windows Longhorn concept video - does Vista live up to it?

Over on Digg, a user named anog has posted a link to a YouTube video which purports to be a promotional video made by Microsoft showing off Longhorn (Vista's development codename) for PDC 2003 attendees. Watching it really does

get you excited about the possibilities for the next version of Windows, until you realize that what they showed really isn't what Vista turned out to be.

So, have a gander at the video for yourself, and tell us: would you rather have Vista as it has turned out, or this vision of Longhorn? Or, maybe a better way to phrase the question would be: Do you think Microsoft is delivering on the Longhorn vision they put forth with the upcoming release of Vista?
