      When I found out that Windows 7 isn’t even Windows 7, and that Microsoft are just being retarded again with their naming convention of consumer OS’s, I was seriously about to CRY.

      NO IM NOT JOKING.

      I was so looking forward to having NT v7.0 kernel to fiddle around with :'(

      I guess this is the reason how they managed to pull the release date from the initial 2011 to 2009 😛

      It is the 7th Windows release to use the NT kernel if you count XP 64-bit (it did have a modified WS2003 kernel so its not a far stretch), Windows 2000, XP, XP 64-Bit, WS2003, Vista, WS2008 and then Windows 7.

      Yeah, its the Seventh Version of Windows. Marketing wise. But there was a Windows NT 3.x and NT 4.x too remember! But Windows 7.. with a NT 6.1 kernel… 😮 It’s just a marketing name. I mean really – “Vista” got so much flak when it was announced. Well it still does haha.

      Windows 1.x
      Windows 2.x
      Windows 3.x
      Windows 3.x NT
      Windows 4.x [95, 98, ME]
      Windows 4.x NT
      Windows 5.0 NT [Windows 2000]
      Windows 5.1 NT [Windows XP]
      Windows 5.2 NT [Windows 2003]
      Windows 6.0 NT [Vista and 2008]
      Windows 6.1 NT [WINDOWS 7!?!?!?!]

      It’s the first time they’ve actually given it a plain ol’ number since Windows 3.11 it’s so wierd! Well, except for 9x but thet resembled the years really didn’t they much like 2000 and so on 😉

      I guess this is kind of a good thing. Because us users of Server 2008 can probably upgrade to R2 without having to do a full reinstall, and hopefully many of our workstation conversion stuff will still be relevant and/or useful 🙂

      I highly doubt it! Well maybe, never say never of course – but Micro$oft releasing a new major OS using LESS than the last one!?! That’d be a very welcome first! However I remember reading that some MS guy said something along the lines of “All PC’s which are Vista certified will be able to run Windows 7 straight out of the box at a similar speed, if not faster”. Interesting.

      Umm… I checked it out… Question 01) Is that real? 😮 Question 02) I noticed there are no “Forum Rules” per se that Arris has written up… but I think he might have something to say about that link….. 😯
