Thanks guys, I told the customer I had not heard of any talk of Version 11.

I haven't heard anything about there being a Windows 11. Looked like a advertising website.

Has anyone heard or know anything about "Windows 11" being released on August 29, 2020? I just had a customer tell me they will be getting Windows 11 machines next month.... I found this: https://www.window11updates.com/
I thought Windows 10 was the main OS now for MS and they would just be releasing updates to it?
If there is any truth to this, has anyone been testing any beta versions with VFP ?
Thanks

M$ made it clear (although I guess they *could* change their mind) that there will not be anything past Windows 10, iirc.

Copying Apple once more? OS X (ten) has been around for about 20 years now, and it’s still “10”. Of course, it’s up to 10.15.x...

Apple finally turned their OS up to 11: https://www.theverge.com/2020/6/22/21299799/macos-11-big-sur-os-x-apple-veri...
Microsoft can't be more than 2, 3, 5 years behind...

Sort of like how current iOS is always Android - 5 years then, and how Apple has always invented feature 'x' in iOS despite everything else having it for ages :)

Is it five? I was thinking more like 3...

Yep, it's not cool until Apple says it is.
The walled gardens of MS, Apple and Android grow more similar, more insular, and less innovative. Linux, meanwhile, reinvents the UNIX schism and goes off in all directions with incompatible desktops, systemd, Network Manager, and other atrocities. Same old, same old...

Well, waddya know? It had been “OS X” for so long that most people pronounced it “oh ess ecks”, not realizing that it was supposed to be “10”.
Those of us who knew that the X in OS X was a Roman numeral will now probably pronounce “OS 11” as “oh ess too”. ;-)

Or is it binary 3?
