Windows Vista
July 21, 2005 11:28 PM
According to the rumor mill, the next version of Windows, currently codenamed Longhorn, will be officially called Windows Vista.
I'm guessing the guy who did Microsoft's product naming finally retired (or maybe Google hired him), and it seems Microsoft replaced him with his younger, more clever brother who can think of monikers beyond his older brother's limit of two seemlingly random letters.
Old and busted
Windows NT, Windows ME, Windows XP
New hotness
Windows Vista
If this name is announced, I'm guessing a release date will also be announced.

Dylan,
My name is Scott, I was referred to you by Trev.
I finally deployed my own site (see above), but it is awful. I was wondering if you could show me how to improve it. I like www.trevorgreene.com and would be very satisfied having a custom version of all the functionality present there. My intention is not to have someone catch fish for me, but rather teach me how to fish.Much thanks in advance,
Scott S.http://www.penmachine.com
