maybe Windows 13 will be a good one.

I dunno, 7,8,10,11,13 might be a bit too consistent for Microsoft, we don't want people to accidentally understand what order things release in.

Introducing Windows S series X Live 360 One Professional.

Maybe it's a prime number thing... 13 could be the one!

Microsoft likes to reuse names for things that are unrelated. I think the new "Windows" will be called either "Windows OS" or "CoPilot".

"Are you a Mac or Zune OS user?"

They already tried and failed rebranding other stuff to CoPilot so yeah they will likely try again with Windows.

Is that the midterm OS that’s surprisingly stable until SP1?
