Just read this off google, How's this for name new Microsoft XP update :)

Microsoft is considering updating Windows XP before it releases Longhorn, a major overhaul of the industry's dominant operating system that is not expected for about two years.

Issuing an update to XP would represent a significant shift for the software maker, which for months has insisted that it had no plans to create a separate version of Windows before Longhorn.

they shouldn't name it after something that is ass.

but it is windows I guess...

heh yeah exactly Spidz* :) But it's only an internal nameing so it hasn't much bearing on the final product name. I just thought it's a funny nerdy things to do :)

to be honest it wouldn't surprise me, look at windows me

to be honest it wouldn't surprise me, look at windows me

what's wrong with Windows ME? It's like Windows SE, the SE means special edition, ME means Millenium Edition. Just because it happens to spell 'me'

Are they planning to release this "reloaded" xp as a software update you can download, or a seperate product you can buy at the shops? If it's the latter, M$ are such whores.

well, it'd want to be a bloody good upgrade for me to buy it. It'd have to include some new programs that are actually useful, not just security fixes and a few new wallpapers and call it an upgrade

And some skittles :D

But if i have to pay, i more than likely will pass... depends what sort of reviews it gets at the time

whoop my point is windows me was basically just 98 with a whole bunch of patches and s*** it was a half way product...

It's like Windows SE, the SE means special edition

What was so special about it anyway?

SE actually means second edition
