104329 2002-12-09 03:49:00 I don't think the Office range has code names. Unless Office 11, is some kind of codename. -=JM=- (16)
104330 2002-12-09 03:58:00 Not quite:

Early Windows codenames were random place names (Cairo, Chicago, Memphis etc) - there's a list of them at . phm . lu/Documentation/Windows/Codenames . asp . " target="_blank">www . phm . lu

Windows XP was code-named Whistler and the next version of Windows, at the time, was code-named Blackcomb . Both of these names come from ski areas in British Columbia, close to Microsoft's headquarters . At the foot of Whistler Mountain, there is a saloon named Longhorn that serves the local skiing population .

Note that Cairo was WinNT 4 . 0 and also refers to the Windows NT unified distributed filesystem .
