    The rumors of Windows 9 existed shortly after windows 8 originally had been released, the features in threshold were suppose to be in windows 8.1 update, and Microsoft Virtual Academy videos eluded to consecutive roll out releases before Windows 8.1 and has further continued that trend with the 8.1 update, going to windows 9 is done so only for one reason; to have all the users of windows to pay money to Microsoft, these tactics in threshold are being put in place to try to better market windows 8. People create bullshit to try to control companies, later to learn they are just full of shit.

    But they've done that since the beginning so I don't see why so upset now.

      That's because he isn't an "MS fanboi". He is a "Windows 8" fanboi - even more fanatical!

        It would be a waste of money to have all that windows 8 product in stores to go to waste buy releasing a new version of windows, my main issue is that programmers are seen by the rest of the world as full of shit and how people go on about a product that does not exist yet confirms that in the hearts of people.

                  Cut and pasting a large block of fairly meaningless text in multiple replies to multiple messages is very close to being classed as spam.

                              As I've said elsewhere, you're a moron. And you're projecting how you feel others think of you onto the rest of the programmer community. Moronic. Get. Into. Rehab. Now.

                              If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
                              You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
                              Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

                                No matter how many times you spout the same crap, doesn't affect the fact you are talking crap. Repeated outbursts don't affect reality, no matter how far your fingers are stuffed in your ears.

                                  If I am correct which I may not be windows 9 will exist in 2022. Which is I am correct will go to show how full of shit the average programmer is.

                                        If I am correct which I may not be windows 9 will exist in 2022. Which is I am correct will go to show how full of shit the average programmer is.

                                        Well, XP lasted for quite some time, so Windows 9 might too I guess :) Anyway, not sure when but I'm guessing the release of Windows 9 is going to happen.

                                          The rumors of Windows 9 existed shortly after windows 8 originally had been released, the features in threshold were suppose to be in windows 8.1 update, and Microsoft Virtual Academy videos eluded to consecutive roll out releases before Windows 8.1 and has further continued that trend with the 8.1 update, going to windows 9 is done so only for one reason; to have all the users of windows to pay money to Microsoft, these tactics in threshold are being put in place to try to better market windows 8.

                                          Is this some kind of hipster "stream of consciousness" thing or is English not your native language? BTW - Its common knowledge that Microsoft (and Apple and Google) are already working on the "next" OS when they release any given OS. As for Windows 9 simply being a way to get money... there is some evidence that Microsoft may make it a free upgrade from Windows 7, 8 and 8.1. Given that Apple has moved to free upgrades on OS X it's not without precedent.
