I was gonna say, it is highly possible and likely that the X was just a placeholder and they didn't know what the name was gonna be either - just a coincidence that it matched up
I'm sure the time has been mentioned a few times now, but how much longer are we waiting for? 4 or 5 hours? Perhaps a better question is, what time EST is it?
Why it's called Windows 10?.. Watch this video you'll get Idea why it's called windows 10.. youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=NfveyXCsiA8
I doubt they weren't aware of it going to be named Windows 10 while looking at the signs they both displayed to shut-up, meaning never to say they mentioned it first. I slightly disagree it is a coincidence.
No they didn't know, Tom Warren, the guy in the photo was the one doing the live update stream yesterday, and he was just as surprised as anyone else it was called 10 These guys don't have much more insight into MS's secrets than we do, they claim to have sources but are frequently wrong, especially the Windows Weekly guys And to prove my point, his stream was called Windows 9 when it started, and he edited it to Windows 10 halfway through If MJF knew, then Thurrott would have known, and he 100% would have been blabbing it all over his blog and twitter to be the first to tell everyone as he enjoys doing
the first man who knew : www .infoworld .com/article/2613504/microsoft-windows/microsoft-windows-microsoft-skips-too-good-windows-9-jumps-to-windows-10.html (sorry, I can't post links)
It wasn't published after the announcement, it was this years April fools post, jokingly suggesting that Microsoft intended to skip 9 and jump directly to 10, because 9 was too good

Redmond only voted the name on Sept 29 afternoon, actually in Aug after they decided not to release Win8.2, MS guys already knew there would be a new name for WinNext, that's why all those rumors about "Only Windows", "Windows One", etc.
Okay. That's was my clinical view from that particular image. They might just be aware of it and were told to keep it on a low profile by the authority due terms and privacy policy governing Microsoft products and services. Who really knows?
Who has the keys of this thread ... to lock it up! 68 pages of "where's the download link, link not working, etc." I got tired reading all these pages just to figure out that "bulldog147" still hasn't shared the link Yen, do your magic, please
