    It can't be for Windows 8.1, because here we have Windows TH and another section about Windows 8.1.

    I agree, if the final name is Windows TH then this is the WORST OS name in MS history. Even dumber than the vista announcement with the idiot fat guy dancing on stage lol.

    Hopefully it's just for the preview, and it becomes 9

    For now.........?.
    They always mess with links like this before a release of something.
    It is their version of fore play.

    It leads to Evaluation Center and only Windows 8.1 Enterprise is on the list under Windows. That means it leads to Windows 8.1

    you seems to not understand what happens when a link get's redirected ok as the article i linked states it did lead to windows 9 download but later as said in the comments was removed due to going up early

    I am dumbfounded to see how they turn the codename, Threshold, into the name we were expecting it to be(Windows 9). The fact that it is even abbreviated as 'Windows TH' as though it would make the difference from previous Windows 8 and 8.1 is challenging to me. That is a poor nomenclature from them though. No matter what we have to go with Windows TH from this moment on.

    There's still no confirmed info regarding the name ... let's wait for tuesday to see with what name MS will come up :cool2:. Then the ranting can begin, no need to initialize it now.

    I quite agree with you. Not that I am pissed off by it. The notion that it comes up in Microsoft Technet means that could as well be the plan within the developers to name it Windows TH.
