Longhorn loses the balls and becomes Vista

So the project formerly known as Longhorn with its many powerful images is now, Vista. Here's a few preliminary thoughts.

When I think of a vista, I think of a wide expanse of nothing... that I am forced to pay a lot of money for... So I guess the name makes sense.

*thought of the day*Will the shutdown noise be replaced by "Hasta la vista baby"?

Guess only time will tell.

Does this mean that Red Hat will release their next linux version as AltaVista?

How do I begin to retort on that one :P

Actually Red Hat names are weird in their own right. From Valhala, to Seawolf... Who knows. In fact I recall RHEL 4 WS has a really weird build name.

Aw Vraxx...

It's as if BillG personally broke into your house, sodomized you, and then peed in your cereal after putting your cat in a blender... (not my words)

Well you see thankfully BillG isn't a rogue, so he doesn't do it from behind. He's more like an overtweaked Mage who blinks around and zaps you from afar.. Then tries to mind control! I mean just look at Squibby!
