Windows 10 Successor Codenamed 'Redstone,' Targeting 2016 Launch

MojoKid writes: Windows 10 isn't even out the door yet, so what better time than now to talk about its successor? Believe it or not, there's a fair bit of information on it floating around already, including its codename: "Redstone." Following in the footsteps of 'Blue' and 'Threshold', Redstone is an obvious tie-in to Microsoft's purchase of Minecraft, which it snagged from Mojang last year. Redstone is an integral material in the game, used to create simple items like a map or compass as well as logic gates for building electronic devices, like a calculator or automatic doors. The really important news is that we could see Windows Redstone sometime in 2016.

Another Windows story. That part is okay, but way too many peopple seem to want to drop into the never clever discussion:

Slashdotter 1: Every other version of Windows sucks.

Slashdotter 2: No, because your not counting Windows blahblahblah

Slashdotter 3: Hey, we're not talking about non professional second service packs, were talking about versiions that have thisorthat.

Y'all are assembling a Beowulf cluster of asininity, and Netcraft confirms it.
