'Vista'!?

So the 'next-generation' of everyone's favourite OS is apparently to be called 'Windows Vista'.  Can I say now, over a year before the anticipated shipping date sails past without a hint of being fulfilled (that's the usual hype-building release technique, isn't it?), that that's a awful name? 

Thanks.  It sound like something a car manufacturer would reject for its latest not-remotely-funky pastel hatchback.
