Microsoft will launch an operating system for the 'cloud' in four weeks, chief executive Steve Ballmer told delegates at a Microsoft-sponsored developer conference in London...

..."Every time there's a big new trend, a big new opportunity, we write a new operating system," Ballmer told delegates at the conference. "We're now in the process of writing a new operating system. For lack of a better term, before we announce it in four weeks, I'll call it Windows Cloud."http://news.zdnet.com/2424-9595_22-239003.html

microsoft seem to be quite upbeat about this!

I wonder what it's like when a cloud plummets to the earth and crashes...

A big wind would go WOOOSH and then there'd be fog all over.

Anyway, I'd say to Microsoft... "What about Seven? Do you intend to push it away THAT FAST already?!"

In other news, this name reminds me of an ME Joke.

"Before we announce it in four weeks, I'll call it Windows Cloud"? Sounds like he just announced it.
