Windows LH (short of Longhorn) Windows SH (Shorthorn) NH (Nohorn) Windows 6.0/7.0 or may be 8.0 whatever...

Windows XP Square !!!!

Windows NGen

Windows LM (learned from mistakes) lol...

Windows SV (still vulnerable!!!!!!)

Windows IEDMZ (IE defeated by Mozilla..... )

Windows HL (hates linux)

Just Windows with editions Desktop/Laptop/Table PC/Server/Enterprise/Small Business/Home/Professional/Students/Light/Small/Kitchen/Bathroom....
and so on....


Let's see... it'll be really interesting what they chose for next version of Windows.

Ive heard that longhorn intergrates a sidebar into the desktop, will it come as a replacement for the start bar or will startbar prevail?

I have Build 4053...Its is really cool ignoring the MEMORY LEAK, the crappy bug. Explorer.exe takes more than 150MB of RAM. LH is simply the coolest even before it has released..
The looks are pretty neat. MY COMPUTER is changed to just COMPUTER, thumbnails pf pictures are enhanced, like if you take your mouse cursor over the thumbnail, it gives you a bigger preview.
You can do a lot of things with theside bar. Like having a picture slide show, news ticker.....lots more
Check out one of the screen shots that I took when I was really excited(when I installed it for the 1st time.
