A Mac has "Mac" in its name (Mac mini, MacBook, iMac, etc). Its operating system is called "OS X". An iPad doesn't have "Mac" in its name. Its operating system is called "iOS". Hardware and software both have different names, there's no confusion.
Windows RT has "Windows" in its name, just like "Windows 98", "Windows XP", "Windows Vista" or "Windows 7". The Windows OS had names with numbers, letters, words... it's not constant, so "Windows (something) = Windows" for most people. And Windows RT certainly won't be an exception.
I'm sorry to bring down your illusion of "upgraded" computer, but your current computer is far from the one you bought in 1994. The power supply, motherboard, CPU, RAM, videocard and probably hard drives and DVD drives have probably all been upgraded.
The only things that are probably constant between all your upgrades are the metal/plastic case of the computer, the keyboard and the mouse.
...ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!
Another stupid webmaster who never learned about aspect ratios. In fact, there's also stupid people in television stations, because the amount of broadcasts with the wrong aspect ratio is rather astounding.
You can't have nearly infinite bandwidth in a finite frequency spectrum, but you can keep adding a shitload of wires if needed.
Given the problems people have when multiple wi-fi routers are too close together like in an apartment building, I am doubtful that it would work well in a server environment, not matter which frequencies are used.
For all we know, we're all criminals and have been sentenced to a new life to give us a second chance at redemption. Maybe "going to heaven for being a good person" means we keep living once unplugged and "going to hell" means a real death sentence at the time we get unplugged from this virtual reality.
And let me add that some people are failing miserably at saving themselves.

I'm hoping for "Zany Zoidberg".
I can't wait for the release of Firefox 256, which will become Firefox zero on Windows because it stores the program version number in a single byte.
No my friends, they're not two vegetables!
Ketchup is made of corn syrup and tomatoes! French fries and ketchup are three vegetables!
It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of the Mountain Lion".

I can't buy an iMac, a Kindle Paperwhite, a Nintendo Wii U, groceries, pay monthly bills or rent with bitcoins. They're a fictional currency.
I bet my gold in World of Warcraft has a higher value than bitcoins.
I can upgrade my 10.6 Mac mini to 10.8 for only $19.99 directly via the App Store.

I don't know about you, but my desktop is made of wood.
Thank you, Captain Obvious!

I was drinking iced tea while watching The 13th Floor, does that count?
Or with GAMEMAKER!
Sorry, I couldn't resist!
They also don't understand the meaning of communism.
Does this mean that Android phones are now going to be slower?
If you see a couple of white mice in your laboratory, do not step on them!
They are there to monitor their experiment!

Correction: empire X was formed through Invisible Pink Unicorns and bunnies.
