Windows 7 Secret clue on windows 7?

[Skin87]

I am woundering what tipe of secret he is hiding there. looking for a clue in wikipedia and found nothin', i have spend my hours on it lol.. If any one haves a clue, u now where to come lol

Enjoy The Fish. I’m surprised that not many people seem to have caught the subtle joke with the Siamese fighting fish that is part of the default background, so I’ll do my part at keeping the secret hidden. Check out wikipedia for a clue.

Something to do with it not been just a Beta, but "Betta" as in Better Than Vista.

Just a stab!

thanks

or maybe "If you're looking for a low maintenance pet you can't do "Betta" than a Siamese fighting fish."

wikipedia says "Windows 7

The Siamese fighting fish has been used as the default background in the first official beta version of Windows 7 operating system, in an apparent reference to the name "betta"."

but dunno if that qualifies as a great joke

I liked my thought better

You didn't get it was a "Beta" fish?
It's a subtle joke, I guess, but still.

I didn't find it subtle at all and was kind of hoping it was something more
