Windows 9??

We don't have SkyNet yet either; so what?
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.
The code project isn't going on about SkyNet genius.

Well, even "Windows 7" tells me it's really "Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]" . :rolleyes: It's just a frickin' name; it just doesn't matter.

Yeah exactly, and no one at Microsoft has declared what the next name will be yet.

Heh, I never noticed that before. That's pretty weird, it was definitely marketed as a full version number not 'Vista.1' (Win 6 is Vista), and I'm pretty sure there were fairly major back end changes that justify 7 getting a proper version number bump.
Windows 7 is 6.1 Windows 8 is 6.2

Hey can you give me a Microsoft source?
Can't say I care one way or another, however it is customary in the lounge that the subject line end with 'OTD' when posting daily about a specific subject.

God is a believe - reality like Windows 9 does not exist is not a belief, windows 9 which is built on rumors is a belief
If you're trying to convince me of your beliefs I'm an old man and have my own. If you're trying to teach me you've not proved your point sufficiently. If you're just being an asshole, I understand we all have off days.

Windows 8 exists Windows Threshold exists Windows 9 could exist - but doesn't. And anyone that can't admit that is full of shit.
Oh no... CSS has returned to the forums... I thought he was banished to the Back Room and eventually scared off... I'll have to start another quotables thread...
Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

you seem to care a lot about what they are calling the next version and what everyone else is calling it. Prior to the release of 8 people were calling it 8 despite the fact it hadn't been officially named and did that change the world? really if that is the only thing you have to worry about then just be thankful and stop trying to wind us up. I cannot understand why someone with the experience you claim to have would give a fig what they call the next version
You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.
I care about credibility of programmers, who I am learning clearly have none, and these threads make it easy to show the public that you don't have credibility.

DOS to Windows was a big change.
True, but at least with DOS if you knew what you wanted you could do. No as user friendly but you hit the metal near enough! :) ...

No, it wasn't. The pre 95 versions of Windows were a graphics shell which ran on top of DOS - it was DOS with a pretty face and memory management. 95 was different - and better - because it wasn't DOS based.

If you know what you are doing in Windows 8, you can do things that you didn't even know where possible, so go to Microsoft Virtual Academy and learn about Windows 8, instead of talking out your ass.

Congrats. You are now just trolling.
And currently on 9 hits for it, so I don't expect him to last much longer...

DOS was Bill gates first OS, next came Windows 1 and Windows 2, but the public didn't pick it up until windows 3.11 What you said just reinstates what I was saying thank you.
