    @mint @Hyperhidrosis @NonPlayableClown @cvnt @frogzone @mischievoustomato I don't see anything about 64-bit support in 4051, but that one leaked a week early, according to my memory and wikkypeeja: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_longhorn#Milestone_7

    > It appears the "x64 Edition" moniker was conceived only sometime in 2004 as the build 3790.1173 (2004-03-18) is the first one with screenshots to refer to itself as such.

    I believe that. I remember where I was working and making fun of the Windows guy for calling it "x64" and for being super jazzed about Longhorn.

    Boss at that place had the biggest G5 Mac ever sold, he came in hung over one day, moved his mouse, picked his mouse up, Post-it note on the bottom, it said "Good MORNING" but I don't think he saw. He cursed but very quietly, dude must have had a pounding headache, threw the Post-it over his shoulder, shook the mouse and...Windows XP desktop. Green field, blue taskbar, Fisher-Price buttons. Three coders trying to keep their faces straight while the gears turned: "They could not have installed Windows on this, it's a G5...The screen has Windows on it..." So he tries, to our amazement, to pretend everything is fine, but Putty wasn't installed and there was no network cable plugged into it. Eventually, still a little wobbly, he gets up and finds the crappy "Dell Tiny Computer: Secretary Edition" box behind his massive G5 tower, and plugs his keyboard, mouse, and monitor into the correct machine, slumps into his chair, and sends his girlfriend a message asking her if there's any coffee in the front and if she could bring him some.

      Development of Windows Vista
      The development of Windows Vista (codenamed Longhorn) began in May 2001, prior to the release of Microsoft's Windows XP operating system, and continued until November 2006, where it was eventually released to manufacturing. Windows Vista was then released generally to retail on January 30, 2007. Background Microsoft originally expected to ship Vista sometime late in 2003 as a minor step between Windows XP (codenamed "Whistler") and the next planned major release of Windows, code-named "Blackcomb". Vista's original codename, "Longhorn", was an allusion to this plan: While Whistler and Blackcomb are large ski resorts in British Columbia, Longhorn is the name of a bar between the two mountains that Whistler's visitors pass to reach Blackcomb. Gradually, Windows "Longhorn" assimilated many of the important new features and technologies slated for "Blackcomb", resulting in the release date being pushed back a few times. Many of Microsoft's developers were also re-tasked with improving the security of Windows XP. Faced with ongoing delays and concerns about feature creep, Microsoft announced on August...
