No. If it were in BETA, you couldn't buy it.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

If there was a Beta version then it does exist, but there is not a Beta version.
Even still Beta products such as Threshold are not labelled as windows 9, Threshold exists, and a concept that has no desktop at all that could be windows 9 with the ability to spin up any windows version as a virtual desktop and use them as windows - does exist.
Also there is a Windows 9 Logo that was leaked <- the made up Logo exists.
So far people go on about Windows 9 like people go on about UFO's - don't get ahead of yourself.

You were mistaking him for someone with a sense of humour.

Ok, did you learn anything, or do you want to go back to being a kid and attempting to make fun of people?

Not yet. Still wondering why in the heck you care so much about what the next version of windows is called or will be called.

XP and 7 are the only versions that actually exist.

Windows 9 actually translates to "Windows No" which means no more Windows. So Windows 7 was the last version Microsoft will support. Microsoft is not going to make any more Windows....just doors.
|
|
|
|
|
Microsoft has plans to end support within the next year
|
|
|
|
|
Actually not until 2020.

I thought it was sooner then that...

The problem with rodent infestations is that you can never be completely rid of them. A bit like Windows 9, and Moon Landing deniers.

You insult rodents. More like cockroaches or herpes.

Yes. My apologies to rodents. You are right; more like a cockroach with Herpes!

Seriously, whatever MS is paying you to do marketing for them, it's too much.

I thought everyone knew that the next version of windows was called Windows ine and was to be released on the n'th iteration giving Windows N'ine but the ' key has been removed from all MS pcs

OK, I know I give Microsoft a hard time a lot, and many people think I hate them. But I only give them grief out of ![Heart | [heart]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/love.gif) .
Whoever thought Visual Studio 2013 Update 4 CTP 1[^] is a valid name for a product needs a series of good, firm strikes about the head and shoulders. That's IBM-naming quality.

And since when did CTP become a 'norm' in the development cycle.
Alpha, Beta, CTP, RTM
CTP used to be an interim release to 'show-off' up and coming products, now it appears to have become lifecycle.
|
|
|
|
|
And Microsoft have their own names:
Traditional name MS name:
Alpha == Beta
Beta == RTM
CTP == Service Pack
RTM == Next version.
