Lol..Update 2, No such thing. Considering the ridiculously short delivery time of Windows 9, my statement is referring to taking a "Windows 8.1 Update 2" update sitting in the lab (the prototype shown in the BUILD conference pictures), and just re-branding it as Windows 9. We'll have to wait until September, to see whether any other Deck Chairs than the Start Menu, have been moved around. And what gaudy new colors will be used for the Metro tiles. Maybe we'll get Angry-Birds-branded Solitaire or something. Paul

Almost every version of Windows had its naysayers at the time of release. And although I have never owned anything Apple (other than an iPod) since an Apple II-compatible Franklin Ace way back when, I'm sure it has it's own group of "Don't do that" people, too. I can't think of a single OS that didn't have it's share of detractors at the release of a new version/update/upgrade. We won't even get into cars :-) -- SC Tom
