Meanwhile, under Sinofsky, Windows will be stuck with boring numerical codenames until the end of time.

I'll take this as the order of cool names software wise.

Linux >= Apple > Microsoft

Apple gets 2nd because they had a code name for IOS called Nemesis but I like linux more.

I still think the top names of all time were the Crunchbang releases "Statler" and "Waldorf". Muppets forever.

I don't pick favorites.
