Who is ready for Windows 10? Because Microsoft is already making it!

Looks like Windows is going strait to 10? Wonder what happened to 9.

At least it looks like it will be adding some new desktop items.

Wait. O.o Was Linux already using some of those features for awhile now?

They're skipping the good versions of Windows, and now only giving you the ones you don't like.

Edit: Or because 7 ate 9.

type your reply.

I got nothing to say about this.

Although the one good one bad seems like pretty much the standard for M$.

We all know we're waiting for Project Longhorn 2.

Windows 10 is just Windows 9, why they changed the name, I don't know.

If I want to see anything in 10, I want to see Process Explorer and Autoruns integrated and better resource monitor tools.

Everyone is skipping a beat these days.

Xbox > 360 > One (WTF?)

Windows 8 > 8.1 > 10 (O I guess 8.1 was 9)

Geforce 700 > 900 (wait WTF was 800 series mobile only?)

it's all google's fault. without google internet browser's rapid development cycle, we would still be in windows 8.2 probably. :)

on that note, we'll have google chrome 100 before windows 10 rtm. :)
(i'm looking to download windows 10 preview and test i on another low-end machine of mine.)

Everyone knows seven ate nine. Sorry I had to.

I have been for it since the slides/pics were leaked a month or so ago with the new start menu. I've always thought it should of had two panes. One with classic start menu functionality.The second should basically be like the size and layout of the home screen of a WP8.1 device (Here's what one looks like http://tinypic.com/r/2m6lqo7/8 I alternate between a Nokia 1020 and LG G2 ). It would be cool if it could also sync with your phone.

Their motto for it is "One OS to rule them all" as in same OS across all platforms; then WTF didn't they just name it Windows One; not that I was a fan of the change of 360 > One; but now it seems to make more sense given the whole "one OS for multi-platforms" kinda deal.

Because it's going to be their last major OS. It will all be updates from here on out so they just went ahead and called it '10.'

I think Microsoft forgot how to math ever since Xbox One.

Eh, Windows numbering never made sense, I don't see why people are making such a fuss over it now.
You know, 7 should be like 15 if counting all major versions.

That 15 was just something I threw there, not really accurate. However, based on 7's numbering, MS seems to ignore the existance of 1.x, 2.x, NT 3.x, NT 4.0, 98 2nd Edition and ME, at least.
With the "major" versions according to MS being:
3.x
95
98
2000
XP
Vista
