    Hummm... If Windows 7 was "weven", is Windows 8 "wait" or is it "weight"? Either way the performance considerations are thought provoking. :laugh:

            The subject was broached when we were discussing the name for Windows 7 a few years ago... Windows 8 = Wait or Weight :sigh: Windows 9 = Wine or Whine :rolleyes: Windows 10 = When? :~ Windows 11 = Boxcars :laugh:

              "Wiles" could be more appropriate, as it brings tiles to Windows, too much so according to some people. :)

                      If you want everybody here to start calling names to W8 just wait until the first release.

                        Wiles = Windows + Smiles? Sounds like an oxymoron.
