Hi to all here :-)

I have a question:

I have installed Windows "7" on my NetBook and it's great! But I have noticed it's version listed as:

6.1.7000

We all know that the "6" reflects changes in the "core" of the system and the "1" improvements on other areas.

We all know the following history:

20xx Windows 7 (NT Version Number: 6.1.xxxx) ?????
===================================================
2006 Windows Vista (NT Version number: 6.00.xxxx)
===================================================
2001 Windows XP (NT Version number: 5.1.xxxx)
2000 Windows 2000 (NT Version number: 5.0.xxxx)
===================================================
2000 "Windows" Me (Version number: 4.90.xxxx)
1999 Windows 98 Second Edition (Version number: 4.10.xxxx)
1998 Windows 98 (Version number: 4.10.xxxx)
===================================================
1996 Windows NT 4.0 (NT Version number: 4.0.xxxx)
===================================================
1995 Windows 95 (Version number: 4.00.xxxx)
===================================================
1994 Windows NT 3.5 (NT Version Number: 3.5.xxxx)
===================================================
1993 Windows for Workgroups 3.11
===================================================
1993 Windows NT 3.1 (NT Version Number: 3.1.xxxx)
===================================================
1992 Windows for Workgroups 3.1
1992 Windows 3.1
1990 Windows 3.0
1987 Windows 2.0
1985 Windows 1.0

So if NT version number in Windows 7 is actually 6.1, then simply Windows 7 is NOT Windows 7! It's Windows 6.1

Any comments?

Thanks
