Vienna will be a newer version of Windows most likely seeing the fixes to bugs now found in Vista. That is supposed to be due out in 2009 according to a few artciles seen on it. How it actually performs will remain to be seen when it does finally come out.

Microsoft claims Vienna will be released in 2009 but you know how long it was between XP and Vista. Vienna is suppost to have a different file system, it will probably be what Vista was suppost to be to start with.

hmmm im not to happy about this thought i guess . bc im already up to date with Vista and the best one of all (ultimate) i just hope it is a service pack

"The follow-up to Windows Vista should arrive in calendar year 2009

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has already proclaimed that there is "More where that came from" when it comes to operating systems. According to PC World, 2009 is when we can expect more "wow" from Microsoft. During that year, Microsoft is expected to release the follow-up to Windows Vista which is codenamed Vienna.
Microsoft doesn't want another repeat of the 5-year drought between the release of Windows XP and Windows Vista, so the company is accelerating its plans for its next generation operating system.
The time and effort that should have been exerted on Windows Vista were instead diverted to getting Windows XP SP2 out the door. "Then when we came back to it, we realized that there were incremental things that we wanted to do, and significant improvements that we wanted to make in Vista that we couldn't deliver in one release," said Ben Fathi, a corporate VP in Microsoft's Windows Core Operating System Division.
The lack of focus resulted in a number of features being dropped from the initial release of Windows Vista. These included WinFS, native HD DVD and FireWire-B support, enhanced speech recognition and PC-to-PC sync.
Some of these shortcomings will be addressed with the first service pack for Vista, codename Fiji. A fully realized version of WinFS, however, will likely not appear until Vienna.
Fathi declined to comment on what exactly to expect with Vienna, but simply left PC World with these musings: “We're going to look at a fundamental piece of enabling technology. Maybe its hypervisors, I don't know what it is. Maybe it's a new user interface paradigm for consumers." According to Fathi, we’ll have to stay tuned within the next few months to see what exactly Microsoft has up its sleeves for Vienna." http://dailytech.com/Microsofts+Vien...rticle6053.htm

After Vista, it is the turn of Vienna. Microsoft's upcoming Windows operating system Blackcomb is now going to be called Vienna. It is not clear when Vienna may ship and what will be its features as Microsoft remains tightlipped on its stage of development.

Microsoft evangelist Robert Scoble first confirmed the new code name in a posting to the company's Channel 9 developer site. "The 'Blackcomb' code name has been changed to 'Vienna,' but we do not have any other details to share on timing or focus," Microsoft said in a statement.

"This does not reflect a big change for us; we have used city code names in the past, which are derived from cities/locations in the world known for great 'vistas' -- the kinds of places we all want to see, experience and that capture the imagination. Vienna fits with this concept."

Interestingly, Vienna is also listed by some Microsoft-watching websites as the codename of Office Live Communication Server 2005.

Software developers usually have codenames for software projects while the marketing department comes up with a more appropriate name at a later stage.

Vienna is not a service pack, it's the next OS. It's not going to be out for a while though, it's not scheduled to come out until 2009-2010, and knowing Microsoft add another 2-4 years on top of that.

Jonyboy · 06-03-2007, 01:30 PM

lol, vista's just come out and were already talking about there next OS.

I think vista might have been microsofts test on consumers to see what they'll accept, so they now know not to work to hard, because they know the consumer will buy anything.

This isn't Microsoft's flaw, the peripherial/hardware companies needed to make drivers for their equipment that worked with Vista.
