RE: Windows Vista
Yeah lucky dude. I think there will be a court case or something :P

I dont think that microsoft will change the name or anything. I dunno what was the problem with longhorn :S

1st they codename an os longhorn and before the release they name it xp.

Then they codename the next os longhorn (again) and then they announce its official name as vista.

Mabbe they will go for a 3 in a row :dodgy:

Just shortly: That's inaccurate. The real meaning is Windows eXPloitable.

Oh, and after all it may sound like Windows Fiesta or Windows Fister.

Ok it's enough about bad jokes about the name.

The weird thing is that a friend of mine had to change XP's language to Chinese to be able to read Longhorn's Vista's GUI labels and texts. I hadn't heard anything about that and it makes it just as dodgy as we got used to by Microsoft.
Ks .... they released xp as eXPerience here too. So im guessing it is the official name :P
