Press any key Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 " X " is the universal programming 'CLOSE' symbol and also infers something 'R' rated in peoples minds.. Windows - is Microsoft Corps flagship product. New programming is based on the Net Framework. Also, the actual Net, or Internet, appears to be here to stay. The GUI or Avalon is in imitation 3D. Microsoft has inferred that they are in the Third Generation of the operating system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Press any key Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Microsoft Windows 6.0 * This does not lend itself to exciting marketing. Besides six is "SEX" to the Germans! Do people know that Windows XP is 5.0? Is it? "Windows Element" or "Windows XT" Or "Windows eXTend" * Windows Element - Sounds like one of the new glass stove tops. * Windows XT - Sounds like a car. A sporty car, though.. * Windows eXTend - Ends in 'end'. What is extended? ***You see the problems - a lot of thought is required*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Press any key Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Microsoft Windows XS * Sounds like a LARGE persons clothing. (And I'm a large person, so no offence.) windows EP * Again, this sounds like a car. But a standard model! 64 bit windows? * It's too early to incorporate anything specific for 64 bit computing at this stage. Would be more like a rider - ( little red splash on box. ) 'For Win 64, etc.' --- "I think, therefore I am.." Plod on.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amnesia Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Windows X Windows EXTREEEEEEME! Windows. Just Windows. or my favourite you dont need to know the OS name because we're so well known. So - Hey man whats OS are you using? - oh I'm just using you dont need to know the OS name because we're so well known OS. Its teh bomb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamstarter Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Drop the Windows name all together and market a new name. Starting over and fresh. Longhorn contains as many changes as windows 95 did to win 3.11, so a brand new name, not previously used makes total sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt A. Tobin Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 ok we have Windows Side --- Windows Windows 2.0 Windows 3.0 Windows 3.1 Windows 3.11 (for workgroups) Windows 95 (and all that osr2 junk) Windows 98 (and SE) Windows ME (otheriwse known as Windows 98 Third Edition, hehe) Windows NT Side --- Windows NT 3.1 Windows NT 3.51 (a version I would like to get my hands on) Windows NT 4.0 Windows 2000 (Windows NT 5.0) Windows XP (NT 5.1) Even though they have user friendly names most programs identify windows xp as nt 5.1 so... my option is whatever they call longhorn it will still identify at the core as NT 6 and us techys will do the same for the sheer hell of it... I hope they do something nifty or just drop the extras and just call it Windows Professional or Windows 'product subname' you know but id like the years back but hell who knows but us techys know at the core its NT 6 PS Why is XP 5.1 there are enough changes in the os it should have been windows 5.5 or 5.51 (ala NT 3.51 hehe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azadre Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I honestly see it being called Windows XP 2006 Edition. Microsoft put a lot of money into the marketing behind XP and it would make sense to me. (Gold was 2001 Edition) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El_Cu_Guy Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 I can't believe there are some of you who actually believe that Microsoft would simply call it Windows. That's just beyond dumb. What about Blackcomb? What will they call it? I gee I know the perfect name, uh, Windows! :wacko: :wacko: :wacko: With the latest round of decoupling (uh that's features removed for the rest of you) it's looking more and more like Shorthorn maybe called Windows XP2 with a Shiny New Look. Some names -- Windows: I Waited For This?!? Windows: 95 All Over Again Windows: You Should Have Bought a Mac Windows: Left Wanting Windows: Still Won't Get You Laid Windows: FUBAR It's not likely to be called Windows 6.0 or WindowsNT 6 due to the obvious confusion (one need only look to this thread to realise that). WindowsFX is also likely out of the equation as it would not likely fly in coporate environments (think marketing). Windows 2006 is logical as it people would believe there to be less of a gap between desktop releases (XP to Longhorn). Not everyone knows the release date of XP and may consider counting from SP2 or SP3. Other have been hearing about 2003. Stop pulling acronyms and names out of your butt and start thinking more realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
