Since a lot of people are stupid, and can't understand that "Windows Se7en" is indeed read as "Windows Seven" and not "Windows SeSevenen" or something along those lines, Windows 7 was deemed the best way to describe the new OS.

Seems kind of silly to have Windows 7 have a OS version of 6.1 I think I’d like “Windows 7″ as a name even better if the actual version of Windows was 7.0.

Whoever likes that name should die in a fire. Windows "7" is a MUCH better name. Windows “7″ is a horrible name! Whoever likes that name should die in a fire. Windows “7″ is a MUCH better name.

From what I've seen from the PDC videos, Windows 7 has a lot of new features that I'm pretty excited about (namely the superbar and Aero Peek). As far as Windows 7 being the working name... eh, I dunno. I would have preferred an actual name, like they did with Vista. Then again I can't really think of a good name for it. Windows 7 kind of reminds me of when they named their OS after the year it was published in (i.e., Windows 95, 98, 2000). Is sounds kind of weird to me, I dunno. I guess I'll get used to it. Still, I was looking forward to a name... What’s with all the Vista 2.0 jokes?
