Several people have expressed amazement that Microsoft is <link url="http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1006-200-1541952.html?tag=pt.isyndicate.hl.ne">calling the personal edition of Windows "Windows Me"</link>, but frankly it makes perfect sense, they're trying to turn "Windows" into a verb: "Oooh baby, Windows Metm harder." Dori of Backup Brain suggested that this was to prepare for renaming WinCE (as a verb that one's dead on!) to "Mini Me".

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
