Office 2007 Standard Key Microsoft 'Red Dog' A pi

Wired Magazine;s December cover tale on Microsoft Chief Sofware Architect Ray Ozzie is now via the internet.I believed it captured properly Ozzie;s conflicts in winning more than the “old guard” inside Microsoft, while pushing ahead with his new agenda. But the part which most intrigued this Microsoft codename watcher was the bit about from where the codename “Red Dog” emerged.One of my readers postulated that “Red Dog,” a k a the Microsoft Azure cloud operating system,Buy Office 2010, got its name from either “a mine in remote Northwestern Alaska” or the Red Dog saloon, “a historic landmark in Juneau,Office 2007 Ultimate, the capitol.”Dave Cutler, one of the Red Dog architects, claim the origins of Red Dog were quite different. From Steven Levy;s Wired story:“Another indication of the rebel nature of the project comes from its codename. “The official story is that we are just like Red Dog beer, and I;m sticking with that,Office Home And Stude/nt 2010,” (Corporate VP of Cloud Infrastructure Amitabh) Srivastava says.“But Cutler is additional forthcoming: “We were visiting Hotmail,” he says, “and there was a really seedy strip joint in San Jose called the Pink Poodle. I said,Office 2007 Download, ‘Maybe we ought to name this project the Pink Poodle.; Everybody said, ‘Oh,Office 2007 Standard Key, God, we could never do that.; And then somebody said, ‘Red Dog,; and we all said, ‘What a great name.;”The cover line about the Wired tale is “Can Ray Ozzie fix the house that Bill built?” I don;t feel Ozzie is trying to fix Microsoft as much as he;s trying to change inside perceptions of what;s important, as well as outside perceptions of the company. What;s your take?
