    ... they were discussing names for Windows 8. I just assumed we do the same as for Windows 7. It got the nickname 'Weven'. So Windows 8 should be 'Weight'

              Well, I believe they should go with Windows App Store Home EDition UPdate.

                In honor of the [forced] change of the interface in Explorer to the newer Ribbon I say we call it ORIGAMI. I even have a few slogan/tag line suggestions. Introducing Windows Origami, the next step in the digital paralyzation. Or this one… Windows Origami, isn’t it time we made the choice for you? And lastly… Windows Origami, have you solved it today

                  When Oracle 8 came out behind schedule, it was commonly referred to as Oracle Late (merging the 'l's). MS are wilely enough not to announce release dates too early, but it will probably take longer than expected, so WindowsLate (late rhymes with Eight) sounds good to me; also as it is meant to include tablet devices, WindowSlate would fit as well.
