  1. Windows Vista How Vista, XP, and Blackcomb got their name

    Windows Code name blackcomb now Vienna, and Windows NT 5.1, codenamed "Whistler"; were both named after the Whistler-Blackcomb resort. Vista, codename longhorn, which was an intermediate release, was named after a bar at the Whistler-Blackcomb resort. Isn't Microsoft smart at the naming? :P
