What do you think Longhorn should be called?

[Richard0612]

Personally I like 'Longhorn', I can't see why they fuss over names!

[-I-]

I'd use "Windows NT 6.0' or a new 2 of 3 letter combination, with a catchy meaning,

but absolutely NO

> asta la VISTA,

and certainly not XP 2 / II

id for example could emangine that after a first - a new technolegy, and later a new eXPerience, that "revealation" could be the next step..

yet they might better wait with calling it a "revealation" untill after Avalon WinFS and those Lost Features..

I like Windows Vista. I think it comes form the Spanish word, meaning "view" or "sight".

I think MS chose that name because Longhorn will appeal to the sight sense. I will defend this name

[Martin Zugec]

Agree, I also like that name (however I know I will refer to it as NT 6.0 finally )

i would like a two letters name, you know like windows 9x, nt or xp... maybe win '06 lol

edit: i know, i know you're going to tell me about win "LH" but i don't like the codename "longhorn"

2Simonsays: Good point... As I said - I like name Vista, however I think it is not the final name

[XPero]

I liked whistler so i would call it Windows whistler.

I like the word Vista, but on the other hand its too soft to pronounce imo...

It sounds so soft if you say the word Vista

Windows 2006 would've been a much better name .

[azagahl]

"Windows Shorthorn" would be the most appropriate name.

[swifty]

Windows 3.2 ?
