    WHS 2011 is 8800.. I think they'll stick with the current naming convention; Windows 8

    If MS really call win8 "Windows Sucks", the only explanation I could think of is: All big brass of MS have gone nuts. LOL:D

    The only available choice of build numbers for win8RTM is : 8000;8400;8800;9200;9600.
    I guess MS would rather use 8800 again than to pick the other 4 not-so-desirable numbers.

    How can you say that the "only available choice of build numbers for win8RTM is : 8000;8400;8800;9200;9600" ???

    Thank you so much for this link... I never ever thought that such a calculation lies behind a Windows build.. Great!!! :)
    Now i think RTM will be 8800 and Beta will be 8400... What do you say??
    8000 for beta, i don't think so. Its so close...

    I don't know why M$ is making the hell of the Operating system but I heard that Windows 8 will extended with more Apps. and one of the cool feature of windows 8 is the "Face detection feature", when working with your cam. Some new dock icons will make the OS more beutiful from windows 7. However IE10 will be integrated in windows 8. M$ is working on IE10 and after WMP12 in windows 7, don't think that it will be WMP13, the name will be different other than WMP13. The string version of Windows Xp - v5.0, For vista - v6.0. for Win7 - v6.1 , for windows 8 - it may be 6.2 or 7.0.

    Some says the beta is to be 8100, and some 8200. Only time can tell.

    Personally I don't think it would be 8400, my guess is they would avoid using any other builds using the "potential RTM numbers" to avoid mistaking it to be a RTM.

    Could be right, maybe not in Windows 9, but maybe down the road. The Colorado line of servers already use a silverlight player to stream through the web interface, though it does suck. But eventually I could seesomething like that working.

    What will be the final name of "Windows 8"?

    One week before the BUILD event in Anaheim, California? Does anyone here knows what will be the final name of the next version of Windows?

    Is it "8" , "Microsoft 8" or "Windows Metro"? :orb:
