Rinty Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I doubt it will be named Windows 2006, it is kind of lame. I expect it to follow of routes of having two letters to represent it like XP. Something like Windows RX (Revolutionary eXperience). 2506054[/snapback] Windows RX Sounds like a Prescription drug. LOL. It sounds cool but I am sure MS will give it a lame name anyways.

Hiiragi Tsukasa Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Windows Longhorn sounds nice. Though Mac fans would all rise and say that Microsoft was stealing the naming system from Apple (Tiger, Panther, etc.) Or they could change the whole operating system's name, which would either be a great marketing strategy or a big marketing fluke. It must be a damned job to try and come up with a catchy name.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven P. Administrators Posted April 22, 2005 Administrators Share Posted April 22, 2005 In all seriousness tho, they may want to stay with the name XP and simply call it Windows XP Version 2006 but since this is a major update (Windows XP was based off Windows 2000) it may be called Windows 2006.

Axel Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I don't think they will use numbers in this name. Numbers outdate something too quickly. For example... Windows 2000... it seems old becuase of the "2000", whereas "XP" still sounds fresh and new. There was some very clever marketing going on there and I wouldn't be surprised to see somthing similar this time round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Microsoft Windows Microsoft Windows Server Edition Microsoft Windows Media Center Edition they could just have a version number in small print under the name for example, and the os would be referred to as Windows build 6452 or whatever.

Eredain Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I think they will name it simply Longhorn (without "windows" in name). This would be something really new... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axel Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 ^^^ That'll never happen. There would be too much confusion with the general public in relation to WHY it was called "Longhorn" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
