interesting.

Booo, like Longhorn better. Why not go back to the year again? Windows 2006

 

[ironcrotch]

WTF Vista?

They should have waited closer to release date to announce this. So now people can be pissed off even more while they wait another 2 years

 

[Sluggo]

Excellent, now I can build a fast computer and call it The Vista Cruiser

God I have longed for this day.

 

[RGN]

hmm, I though it was going to be 10.5

 

[Sqube]

.... Vista?

What focus group signed off on that?

 

[eigen]

The name does not do it for me.

They name gated-retirement communites using vista "Welcome to Ponte Vedra Vista" or some such garbage.

 

[NFS4]

It's an operating system, not your kid's name. Why are you guys getting so pissy?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

As long as it's faster and/or more stable than Windows XP I'll use it regardless of name.

 

[stars]

Vista hah suiting name for the piece of crap.

 

[yankeesfan]

Vista? That reminds me of some resort place for some reason.

 

[mrSHEiK124]

If Microsoft has a say, they'll be no (Windows Xp) Home in Tuscany.

Version names are fine.

NT 5.2 it is.

Or is this going to (officially) be NT 6.0?

<slide>

When is Intel going to dump the PENTIUM name and come up with something new???!

 

[SSP]

Who cares. Its just a name.
