Windows 95 refers to itself internally as windows 4, but MS said to stop consumers being confused it would be called 95.

Vista..... still sounds like a stupid name to me. Can I get a job thinking up stupid names for Microsoft? they must be paying someone to do it!
Right but the 9x tree of Windows is dead, NT is the survivour. So that is what i use as examples, but yes, you are indeed right...

I dunno, Vista is a risky name, but if MS can make something kool with it, i think alot of people will like it. Personally, i could care less what it's called, but vista isn't that bad. It's better than Millenium Edition, or even worse, Microsoft Bob!
