Seen the pictures of Windows XP? Another idiotic name.
I honestly thought we'd get to that point sooner, given the interest in
embedded device interfaces, etc. I didn't think MS would tune in so fast.
One thing they're missing in all of this is X. It may have been seen as an
Achilles Heel for some time, but with constant improvements and many more
reasons to use the remote display stuff, we can cause some grief if we use
it right. :)
