The workingtitle for XP was Whistler and the successor for Longhorn is also in development under the name Blackcomb. E2 makes it possible to find the origin of those words: Whistler/Blackcomb. They are mountains...The odd thing is that the word longhorn doesn't fit in, maybe the longhorns habitat is in between those mountains. :-)
Note: It's just the working title, the real name will probably be Windows RG (really good).
Long"horn` (?), n. Zool.
