I don't get the name, it makes no sense from a marketing standpoint at all.



Windows NT was Windows 4, Windows 2000 / XP was Windows 5, Windows Vista was Windows 6, And Windows 7 is... Windows 7.

I don't know if that will be the final release name or not.


That's 'cos it's not gonna be named windows 7 when it will be released.


Given that 7 is apparently regarded as an unlucky number in some parts of the world, I'm sure you're right there.
