vcv Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 I designed these box shots :yes: 585512303[/snapback] You should try to get in touch with Microsoft. That first one is really nice looking and very professional, definately a good canidate for a box cover (maybe with a few minor tweaks). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boogerjones Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Neowin Member: "OMG LOLz, teh name is teh stoopid!!! Microsoft are teh stupid!!!!" Sensible Observer to Neowin Member: "The article clearly states the rumor status of this speculative branding. This may or may not be a candidate name for Windows Codename Longhorn. Let's all hope that it is not." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L3thal Veteran Posted February 22, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 22, 2005 That name is so long, they need a box the size of a printer just to put it in to include all the features included. The Inquirer is very amusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
at0mican Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Umm, everybody trashing Inquirer seems to have short term memory lapse ! :rofl: Most of their news turns out true, heck even Neowin uses them as "source" for various newstories. Wasnt Inquirer the first to post that Whistler was going to named XP ? 585511751[/snapback] No I think that was Paul Thurrott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angusmann Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 It sounds like a name Homer Simpson would come up with. If Microsoft is really contemplating this name, then their marketing gurus with their ponytails and chardonnay should "do lunch" a bit less and take a visit to the real world.

Daxbash5000 Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 I have reason to belive that the name "Windows" will be taken out of this OS all together, Just look closly to the naming they used in 4074 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
