How do you feel about some of their more recent product names? Such as

Entra

Azure

Dynamics AX

365

… and don’t even get me started on the version names they give their OS products :D

Yeah, when I was growing up, Windows hit version 2000, but we've somehow regressed all the way back to 11. (The hilarity of Windows 11 being an actual regression, not only numerical, is unintentional.) Let's not forget the Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate UPGRADE Limited Numbered Signature Edition.

I don’t feel much, honestly. Although “Office” was still one of the beautiful ones, but they decided to ditch it for 365?
