If you don't here is some info.
The next version of Windows was originally codenamed "Blackcomb," the company renamed it to "Windows Vienna" in 2006. Windows Vienna is going to be a major release with a totally revised GUI.
Vienna is targeted at revolutionizing the way we interact with our PCs, for instance, the "Start" philosophy, introduced in Windows 95, may be completely replaced by a "new interface" which was said in 1999 to be scheduled for Blackcomb(Vienna), before being moved to the Longhorn(Vista) project, and then back to Blackcomb.
The Explorer shell is expected to be replaced in its entirety, with features such as the taskbar being replaced by a new concept based on years of research from Microsoft's "Vibe" lab. Projects such as GroupBar & LayoutBar are expected to make an appearance, and a new way of launching applications is expected - Microsoft is investigating a pie menu-type circular interface.
Microsoft says by the end of 2009 Vienna will hit the shelves.
