Say goodbye to Longhorn and hello to “Vista”! Yup – that’s right folks Microsoft’s Longhorn project is now known as Windows Vista. Why Vista you might ask? Here’s a quote from a CNN article:

But with Windows Vista, Microsoft wanted the name to focus more on the product, and how it brings clarity to users, said Greg Sullivan, group product manager at Microsoft.

“We each have our own unique view or vista of this digital world. Windows Vista is going to bring more clarity to that,” he said

Um ok.

The first beta of Vista should be available by August 3rd. Perhaps I’ll snag a copy of this OS off of MSDN and review it. Stay tuned!
