MarkusDarkus Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 I Hate when my time get's wasted like this. :angry: If that was true I would be Extremly suprised and dissapointed in the lack of imagination from Microsoft. :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yannis Posted February 22, 2005 Author 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 585514503[/snapback] Which is?

E t h a n Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I already have ;)More later... 585514484[/snapback] I thought they looked good too. :rofl: But I hope they don't steal your ideas. They've got their own inhouse design group paid for that sort of thing, and I don't think MS is all that terribly trustworthy a company. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boogerjones Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 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). 585513189[/snapback] LOL. OK, they are nice designs (so don't get ****ed at me, they're nice-looking pics), but candidate for a real box cover? The 4 windows in that first design are clipped, and there's no way the company would even consider a cover where an official logo was clipped off. And give me one good reason why Microsoft would use a design from somebody when they probably pay an entire department of people to do this stuff.

Winston Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I don't think so, it's too much effort to say, they want a name that's easy for consumers to remember. They had Win ME, easy to remember, Win XP, see the less effort it is to remember the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Decryptor Veteran Posted February 23, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 23, 2005 Nah, they never use the codename for a final release. Hense it's a "Codename" 585512338[/snapback] Windows ME's Codename was millennium. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yannis Posted February 23, 2005 Author Share Posted February 23, 2005 and here I was hoping for 'Windows .NET' 585519306[/snapback] .NET naming for products has been discontinued since ages (ok, about 1,5 year ago) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axel Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Windows ME's Codename was millennium. :yes: 585519355[/snapback] Yeah but that had some relevance, it was released in the new millenium so they could get away with calling it Millenium Edition. Now longhorn doesnt have much relavance at all! Although, I've really got used to calling it that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PyX Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 (edited) Windows Reloaded, Windows eXP-edition and Windows Longhorn were SOME of the code names for the upcoming Windows... Someone from Microsoft confirmed it on a show called M.Net here in Montreal. I never knew they were all about the SAME OS. That means Windows eXP-edition is just another codename for Longhorn, but the guy hasn't said it was going to be the official name for Windows. Then I think they just changed the Reloaded thing for the Service Pack 2 and some other separated files. Edit : Some misc things fixed.
