Oh man, how i do love Longhorn. I love it so much that i installed every build of it, and took a screenshot of each build and made it in mspaint, which i pasted on the bottom. Here are the builds: Note, if builds are realistically actually impossible to install or need me to spend real money on them, im not gonna install them, also, make sure to look at the images! I also had a notepad window in every one of them and said how it felt like installing them.

LEGEND:
 * Green = Installed
 * Red = Impossible, or i have to spend real money to get them to install.

Milestone 3
6.0.3683.Lab06_N.020923-1821 - Longhorn Build 3683 Notes: First build, and pretty much my second favorite of M3 builds. Difficulty: 0/10

6.0.3706.Lab06_N.021029-1731 - Longhorn Build 3706 Notes: This build is nothing too different from 3683, except the wallpaper. This one has DCE, but it only works on VMware 6.5x, and im using VMware 17. Difficulty: 0/10

6.0.3713.Lab06_N.021113-1841 - Longhorn Build 3713 Notes: This is nothing special. The sidebar is there, of course. Difficulty: 0/10

6.0.3718.0.Lab06_N.021119-1730 - Longhorn Build 3718 Notes: Last M3 build, and it is my favorite. Difficulty: 0/10

Milestone 4
6.0.4001.main.021204-1515 - Longhorn Build 4001 Notes: First M4 build, and well, it is buggy i can say that. Difficulty: 2/10

6.0.4002.Lab06_N(ntvbl06).030108-1926 - Longhorn Build 4002 Notes: This build uses the i386 setup instead of the WIM setup that 4001 had. Difficulty: 1/10

6.0.4005.0.main.030128-1920 - Longhorn Build 4005 Notes: My favorite M4 build! Difficulty: 1/10

6.0.4008.main.030219-1933 - Longhorn Build 4008 Notes: This used to be my favorite build. Difficulty: 1/10

6.0.4011.main.030305-2045 - Longhorn Build 4011 Notes: This is a very glitchy build, and well, the original ISO is broken, so i tried the i386 repack, and what do you see? It didn't work, great. So i tried the normal 4011 with an upgrade from XP and that somehow worked. Still prefer 4005. Difficulty: 4/10

Milestone 5
6.0.4015.main.030328-1500 - Longhorn Build 4015 Notes: I got DCE working on this build! I won't count this on the difficulty scale, because VMware 16.2+ need DirectX 11.1 for 3D acceleration and my PC doesn't support it. So i enabled OpenGL instead and it worked! Hooray! Difficulty: 2/10

6.0.4017.main.030409-0735 - Longhorn Build 4017 Notes: No changes from 4015. Difficulty: 1/10

Difficulty: 2/10

6.0.4086.Lab01_N.040704-2000 - Longhorn Build 4086 (lab01_n) Notes: Nothing to say. It's just similiar to the other 4086 builds. Difficulty: 5/10
