Maybe we should have a survey for that.
It might well be a rare one, where I don't vote "Bacon".

Ain't nothin but a thing, once the post rolls off so will the memory of it.
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.0 Beta
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

Every[^] other[^] technical[^] news[^] source[^] has called[^] it[^] Windows 9. We haven't lost any credibility (or at least any more than everyone else)
If it ends up being called something else on the 30th, I will apologize to everyone hurt by my misnaming the software currently known as Windows Threshold.

If they don't call it "Winfinity" they are missing out. Seriously..lie the 8 on its side and call it winfinity. No other changes required*

I've already got that one, must be an early release .... no wait .... I had my screen rotated 90!

If they do, I'll still wait for "Winfinity+1"

Why should the 8 lie on it's side? Did it share your wine, or did you allude to how W8 has fallen over (all by itself)?

Yes exactly, and it would mean the difference of being like everyone else and greatness; would it not?
|
|
|
|

Oh. Yes, of course. That is the only path to greatness. My mistake. 
Just out of curiousity, what will you switch to after Windows 9 is officially announced? Will that be time to complain there is "no next version of Office"? "Visual Studio v.next doesn't exist"? "Apple isn't working on a new phone"?
Help me out here. I want to know what news items to avoid to be great.

According to our resident release pedant the 30th is not going to happen, but obviously you knew that. 
Once you lose your pride the rest is easy.
I would agree with you but then we both would be wrong.

Don't worry Kent, what ever happens you're credibility will remain at it's current immeasurable* level.

Credibility is irrelephant.

Ah... sometimes I long for the time when my workday started by typing the words "BOOL CALLBACK DialogProc"... 
Life was simple then. A ListCtrl was all you needed.

You had a ListCtrl ?

You came close to having to hand in your badge and gun, there.
Be more careful, in future.

Learn to spell: It's Ear Elephant, a reference to the large ears that elephants have.

Elephants only got big ears when some of them moved to Africa to join terrorist organisations, to get revenge on the West after so many outsourced projects in India were dropped.

Mother of God, will he never shut up?
Aside: I can't find "credable" in any dictionaries. Anyone know what it means?
If it's not a real word, the OP will lose some credibility nothing will happen , because positive integers don't go below zero.

Probably not, unless the big spam hammer gets wielded.
