A Window by any other name

You may have seen that the next version of the Windows Operating System will be called…Windows 8. Exciting stuff eh? Bet you can hardly wait.

This was apparently confirmed in a post on a promotional website where MS specifically used the term ‘Windows 8’.best free ipad recovery software

Does this really matter? I would suggest it does. Windows 8 is safe and solid – you know what you will be getting. The world is littered with badly named products that simply died – mainly because of the name. I can’t remember which motor manufacturer was involved but one of their European models had to be renamed because a translation of the original meant something like ‘no go’. So, it’s easy to get it wrong.photo recovery iphone

It’s also possible that if Windows 7 had been a disaster then MS might have considered a new name. Look at Vista. That was one name I just didn’t get.

Is Windows 8 boring? Possibly. Is it catchy? Possibly not. However, it seems like it may do exactly what it says on the tin.

Perhaps MS will just stick to this naming convention from now on.
