ahhell Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 I kinda liked when Windows went by a name (XP, Vista, ect) and not a number. It made searching for stuff much easier.

Quillz Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I think this already exist right? It was the former name of Linspire.

The Rev Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Wasn't "Midori" the code name for Windows 8 back when news first broke (like pre 7 rtm)?? Wouldn't really surprise me if they called it Windows 8.

FaiKee Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 According to canouna, the name "Windows Beta" appeared on random test builds instead of the name "Windows Developer Preview". Although MS has presently removed the name "Windows 8" from the current builds, there is always a chance that in the end they would decide to use this name after all, we just have to wait and see. :laugh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1012142-is-there-going-to-be-a-new-name-for-win8/page/4/#findComment-594288760 Share on other sites More sharing options...
