Microsoft's next generation named Win10 non-win9, subverting Windows naming rules

  

Computer shop news: The next generation of Windows is coming, but we all guessed that the new version of Windows was named Windows10. Why is Microsoft directly crossing Windows 9 called Win10? Perhaps Microsoft will re-create the naming rules.


Since the birth of Windows in 1985, Microsoft has changed the way the operating system is named. Originally from Windows 1.0 to Windows 3.2, the Windows operating system was named directly by version number, including later Windows NT 3.5 and Windows NT 4.0. In 1995, Microsoft released the epoch-making Windows 95, the first time Microsoft named the operating system in the release year. In 1998, Microsoft introduced Windows 98. After fully spanning the NT kernel, Microsoft began to name the server version of Windows with the age of hairstyles, including Win2000, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2012. The failed Windows Me, Windows Vista, and the big Windows XP are the names that Microsoft has tailored to their product characteristics. The naming of Win7 is different. Many people agree that this is the seventh operating system after Microsoft's completely platformized Window95. Some people say that because the short-lived version number of Vista is 6, the version number of Win7 is 6.1, so Microsoft will simply call it Win7.

According to the rules from Win7 to Win8, people naturally think of a new generation operating system called Win9, but Microsoft has named it Win10. In order to adapt to the Internet, Windows will become an operating system with faster upgrade speed. The era of launching a generation of operating systems in a few years has passed. So the future naming of Windows is likely to be, Win10.1, Win10.2, etc., similar to Apple OS X.
