Actually Vista means "The visual percept of a region", with these synonyms: aspect, panorama, prospect, scene and view. Translated from Spanish, Vista means: sight, vision, ability to see; look, glimpse; spectacle; viewfinder; range of view; point of view.

Windows Vista has been unofficially abbreviated to Windows VI, staying with the traditional 2 character motif, as in 95, 98, 2K, ME, NT, XP. VI is also the number 6 in Roman numerals, and Windows Vista will carry the version number 6.0.

So next time we should call it Windows VI instate of XP....
