| 712095 | 2008-10-14 05:37:00 | Could 7 have been derived from i7, the latest family of 3 intel desktop processors? | Blam (54) | ||
| 712096 | 2008-10-14 05:52:00 | Surely it just means the 7th version of widows? | pine-o-cleen (2955) | ||
| 712097 | 2008-10-14 07:38:00 | Surely it just means the 7th version of widows? Most probably-Vista 6.0 to Windows 7 7.0. It is a coincidence that the i7 sounds similar... |

| 712098 | 2008-10-14 08:07:00 | From the original link: Likewise, coming up with an all-new "aspirational" name does not do justice to what we are trying to achieve, which is to stay firmly rooted in our aspirations for Windows Vista, while evolving and refining the substantial investments in platform technology in Windows Vista into the next generation of Windows.

| 712101 | 2008-10-14 19:38:00 | I think we have come a little way since Windows 1.01 Metla:-) Yep. More pretty screen pointlessness. More nag screens. More bloat. More "features" we don't want. More space required. More resources just to get it launched. More patches, critical updates. More spaghetti. |
