Windows Vista: Microsoft's Terminator
« on: July 22, 2005, 05:15:01 PM »
The official name of the latest version of MS Windows 64 bit: Windows Vista

Is this name derived from "Terminator"?
("Hasta La Vista, Baby")

From Reuters:

Microsoft Corp. said on Friday it named the next version of its operating system "Windows Vista" as it prepares to release a trial version of the flagship software that already runs on nine out of 10 personal computers worldwide.
Windows Vista, formerly known by its code-name Longhorn, is scheduled to launch in the second half of 2006, five years after Windows XP, the longest time lag between releases of its Windows operating system.
