Microsoft Fan Names Daughter 'Vista'

"Where are all the Microsoft fanatics? Oh, they're around, and one of them has just named his daughter "Vista." If she had been a boy, she was going to have the initials DOS. No kidding.

Two months ago, one of my colleagues posed a question about the location of the elusive Microsoft fanatics. One of the company's most important groups of fans is its Most Valuable Professional program, a group of Microsoft experts that use, evangelize, and champion the company's technologies.

Evidently, that evangelism sometimes reaches interesting levels, as MVP Bil Simser's daughter Vista Avalon Simser shows. If you're wondering, Avalon was the code name for the Windows Presentation Foundation, the graphical subsystem of .Net 3.0. If she had been born a boy, the first name would have been Dev, short for developer, and the initials would've been DOS. But alas, a girl "would have be an upgrade," and so Vista was born."

So, was she born really late?

I'm going to wait for her 18th birthday before making jokes about her constantly going down on people.
