    English or Roman?


    Wondering what will be the name of the OS when it will be out.

    Simply Windows10, or WindowsX ?

    Expecting a mature GUI this time!!

    Windows 10.
    Apple would toss a fit if MS used Windows X.
    And... well it would just not look right, IMO.

    It's actually Roman (X) or Arabic (10) or 2 (Binary).

    Binary would in fact be 1010, which in this case fits quite well :). Windows 10 or Windows 1010.

    Binary system has and knows no digit 2.

    I meant 10 in binary is 2 in decimal.

    Hmm ... that is possible, as it will be similar to them.

    Yes, Apple would have a lawsuit ready in no time!
