Vista is the working name for the next version of Windows.
No one knows what the final name will be until shortly before it's official release, usually not more than a month in advance.

I don't see how they can justify a new OS, they haven't finished debugging XP yet.....

Well, personally, if you consider Microsoft’s new drive around the “Live” name, maybe the new version will be called “Microsoft Windows Live”. I’m already using Messenger Live. If you look at The Live Website and The Live Ideas Website, you’ll see a pattern forming… personally I’m already tired for the friggin word! lol
