- saurik 14y agoI take it you don't remember Windows .NET Server 2003? ;P (The .NET moniker actually got attached to so many things that there was supposedly a serious memo sent internally asking other departments at Microsoft to make the point that .NET wasn't just a buzzword, it was a meaningful brand for a specific product.)
- damian2000 14y agoYeah I vaguely remember that one with some hilarity. ;-) I posted a blog post about the topic recently actually ... "Why was .NET called .NET?" ... http://www.dodgycoder.net/2012/05/why-was-net-called-net.html http://www.dodgycoder.net/2012/05/why-was-net-called-net.htm...
