Hyper-V not WSv

As you may of heard, WSv has had a name change to Hyper-V

Here are a few links:

https://www.p2vd.com/?p=224 (note: the 1st paragraph has a mistake, Hyper-V is the name, Hyper-V server is the stand-alone product mentioned later)

No one seemed to notice that 'hyper-V' was mentioned on Oct 18th on Technet, take a look here.

 

Do you like the name?

    Hi Clive, If Hyper-V was public in October... why were the product marketing team still using the Windows Server Virtualization name at a worldwide press conference the week before the Barcelona announcement? Or was the TechNet reference an (un)intentional leak? Mark
