Microsoft has renamed Blackcomb to Vienna. Blackcomb is the follow-up to Vista, and also the name of the mountain in British Columbia, Canada that's paired with the better-known Whistler mountain. Blackcomb has the longest downhill ski run in North America.
The sole purpose for changing the name is to create buzz inthe media for "the next" operating system, and to cover up the flaws in launching Vista years late. Nevertheless, the name change is an insult to Canada, the US's largest source of imported oil.
