      I would prefer X, but I guess that's already been done! :)

          Shirley, given their locale, it would be coffee-based beverages. Mobile versions could be "short", laptop versions could be "tall", desktop versions could be "grande", and server versions could be "venti". "Americano" would have IE pre-installed. "Kona" would be good for surfing.

          You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

            Windows 10 has the code name Etch-a-schetch. :)

            As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

                I'm pretty sure I heard someone say that there isn't going to be a windows 9, so the point is moot.

                    Please don't joke about it (there were several Dilbert cartoons where Wally replaced the pointy haired bosses Tablet with an Etch-A-Sketch...)

                              They better not release a Windows 10. Everyone knows Microsoft screws up even numbered OSs.
