Windows 7 is the next operating system that Microsoft will release. It will be the successor of Windows Vista and was previously codenamed Windows Vienna. Well, Vienna is no more the new codename is Windows 7 which will be changed yet again once Microsoft comes up with another name for the next operating system.
Most people I have been talking with do not know that Windows 7 is not just another codename but also the version of the next operating system. It is currently named Windows 7 because Windows Vista was also internally called Windows 6, Windows XP was Windows 5, NT 4.0 was Windows 4 and then there was Windows 3 which most probably never had the pleasure to work with.
So the creative minds at Microsoft just selected the version number of the upcoming Windows operating system as the codename for it.
