Isn't Vista still based on NT? I'm more interested in what the server version is going to be based on. I know that NT is the basis of 2000, XP, and Vista is like XP with a nicer paint job and way steeper system requirements, and 7 seems to be based on Vista too, so is there ever going to be a product like, "Windows NT - X" or something for 2010?

I know some people might be thinking I'm being sarcastic but that name seems cooler than the Ski resorts they use on pre-released products.

I'd like a newer version of actual NT, without the super steep system requirements and RAM candy. I'd still be using 2000 if it was going to stay in production with security and bug fixes. 2000 and XP are the only two OSs from Microsoft I personally actually liked other than NT's design ideas. (NTFS and the other stuff NT had) why can't you guys do that again? NT and 2000 had system requirements anyone could have met at the time without much in terms of upgrading, it was for the most part stable, and then Vista...

Oh, and, can someone there make an Email client that's good? You know, getting rid of the preview pane that opened up viruses and worms for you, and making it look like either Vista's Mail client, or something like Outlook XP?
