Poll: What should Microsoft name Windows 8.1 update 1?

In April, Microsoft will push out an update for Windows 8.1 that will bring quite a few new features to the platform. According to the leaks, this will include enhancements for mouse and keyboard users and also the ability to pin modern apps to the taskbar. 

Seeing as Microsoft, with its last large update, bumped Windows 8 to Windows 8.1, what should the company do with Windows 8.1 update 1? Will the company still refer to the platform as Windows 8.1 after the release or will they give it a new name such as Windows 8.1 update 1, Windows 8.11 or even Windows 8.2? While we will have to wait to see how Microsoft plans to market this update, we created the poll below to get your feedback on how the company should brand the update.

Microsoft's BUILD conference takes place in early April which is where the company will announce the update and the features that it will bring to the platform. While that announcement is a little over 4 weeks away, you can check out some of the leaks here, that will give you a good indication on what to expect with the new update.
