Whoever is in charge of naming stuff at Microsoft could stand a flogging. The new spin of the OS (currently coded "Longhorn", due in 2006) is to be Microsoft Windows Vista with the disclaimer "Clear, Confident, Connected: Bringing clarity to your world". Why does this remind me of the mantra for a religious cult?

I suppose I'd better get in the queue at the nearest CompUSA, right?

Also, if you're in the mood for a Stroll Down Memory Lane, take a peek at Wikipedia's "History of Microsoft Windows". Riveting, indeed!

I understand that they'll be serving Kool-Aid™ at the launch party for MS' Vista.
