Why didn't Microsoft name it Windows 10++? Are they stupid?
The Microsoft thing to do is start using Xbox naming, but offset from the Xbox brand. Windows 360. Then Windows Series S for home users and Series X for corporate. Then use Windows One for confusion's sake. The first service pack can be called Windows One X.
I used to like picking up old hardware and modding it for fun. When Xbox One launched, searching for mods for the OG Xbox became really annoying, because all of the old forum posts during the Xbox 360 decade(s) called the first Xbox "Xbox 1" frequently, not dreaming that the third platform would be named "one".
Why didn't they call it Windows 1++++++++++++++++++++++ ?
