Actually, last year at Windows NT Solutions, MS announced that Windows 98
would be the last of the non NT-based Windows. Windows 2000 would be the
next one for the consumer market and it would be NT based.
Based on their track record, I suspect it will be 2001 before they release
it, and that would fit in properly as 2001 is the first year of the new
decade/century/millenium.
Kind regards,

So that's where Microsoft got the idea to add the year to their Windows
product. We've had Windows95, we're getting Windows98 and maybe Windows99
but then what ?? Windows00 ?? ;))
