Windows - Why The Next Version Is Lucky ‘7′

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008
by Ron Schenone

Just a quick note:

In one of the forums it was asked why the next version of Microsoft’s Windows was being called ‘7′.  Taking the first number of each version, Windows XP is 5.1.2600 and Windows Vista is 6.0.6007, the next version of Windows will start with the number ‘7′.

I wish I had something more exciting to say, but that’s it. :-)

Comments welcome.
