Not including special releases NT, CE, Mobile, Server, and service packs, aren t we at least at 9 now?

just like Windows Vista which is being renamed to Windows ME II Microsoft places name Ideas in a hat and has the current employee of the month pull it out of a hat Edit: LOL i know Vista being called Windows ME II is a joke as is my comment they pull the name out of a hat

You re right ... maybe because MS thinks seven is lucky?

Starting with 3.0 it is the 7th released for use
