Have you ever wondered why the launch date for Windows 7 is Oct 22, 2009?

I found the answer some time back:

Oct 22, 2009 = 22-10-2009

2 + 2 + 1 + 0 + 2 + 0 + 0 + 9 = 16

1 + 6 = 7

Interesting, right?

Wow. Have you ever touched a real booby? ;D

You really think they did that on purpose? We need confirmation. Who do we contact?

And exactly what are the chances they doing it on purpose? Besides why would you launch a major OS on a weekday?

Wow, thats an interesting find

That's definitely NOT the reason!

Perhaps the real reason is that it is ready then. Nothing to do with any numerolgical nonsense, or any other nonsense inclusing that the "stars" are right on that day. October is the start of the buying season for the winter festivals which is more important than anything else, get your product out then and it will sell.

If Microsoft can skip Office 13, this line of reasoning could well be a possibility too!

But then nobody is going to come out in the open. So we have to take all this in a lighter vein

You can come up with a total of 7 with a lot of other dates as well. Its just a coincidence.

Oh God, iMav, cant you take a joke It may or may not be true. The find is just interesting.

I repeat: We have to take all this in a lighter vein. Which means we dont take it too seriously.
