Longhorn : Microsoft Windows Vista

Rumours floating around the internet that Microsoft is going to release it’s latest operating system product codename “Longhorn” as Windows Vista.

According to the rumours, the “Vista” name would be in line with the vision the company has presented for the operating system, which is due on the market next year, replacing the current Windows XP.

There is still no official announcement or confirmation from the Official Microsoft Longhorn website about this, but Microsoft has already registered domains to go along with the newly christened Windows, including windowsvista.com. The domains were registered in late March, indicating the company made the decision even before WinHEC gave developers their first taste of Longhorn in over a year.

According to the same source, Microsoft Windows Vista is going to ship out somewhere around the end of the next year (2006)

Update :
Microsoft release official announcement today 22 July 2005 (Pacific Time) about Microsoft Windows Vista, thanks to bro Hafidz for pointing me.

p/s: If this is true then, you might see your windows boot logo as Microsoft Windows Bueno Vista Kolumbia Tri-star. lol.
