does this future console involves with a modified windows 10 preinstalled?

Xbox.
Xbox 360.
Xbox One.
Xbox One S.
Xbox One X.

Who came up with these names? The first Xbox and 360 were fine, but Xbox One? That's what we all called the original Xbox... And it went downhill from there.

KneeTheCap: Xbonex & Xbones.
Xbonex sounds like those typical display names like XxX_EdgyEmo_XxX.

markrichardb: Microsoft just ruined Christmas for thousands of families.

'I asked for an Xbox One X! X, mum! X!'

'But the box says Xbox One, it's the same thing isn't it?'

'No mum, it's not the bloody same! You brought me the wrong console! I hate you!'
This happened to my friend, bought the wrong one that is (another product but same problem), so it is a problem.

BoXXXy sounds cool, or BoToXy.

Or something like:
XBox One X Box 1

That will be unexpected! :-)

Reminds me of the New Nintendo 2DS XL.

dtgreene: the Xbox One X.

Not to be confused with the Xbox One S.
----8<----8<---
(Remember, S and X sound very similar when spoken.)
I think they sound distinctive enough. The key difference is "X" has an additional sound, it begins with a sort of choking in the back of the throat. Perhaps similar to when experiencing indigestion. For Microsoft's sake, hopefully their product won't choke as much as its pronunciation.

Meanwhile Sony says their next console will be a change in Naming conventions, and are taking their cues from some video games. Welcome the Playstation (2019). A reimagining of the original Playstation (1997).

So it's Xbox One X, or XB.O.X for short.

- I played the game on the Xbox
- The brand new Xbox?
- No, the Xbox One.
- The old one?
- Yeah.
- I didn't think the game was that old.
- What do you mean? Wait, what console are you talking about?
- The first Xbox.
- Oh, no, the game is out for the old Xbox One, not the first Xbox.

blotunga: XXXBox might even make me reconsider my aversion against consoles.

Ixamyakxim: I've been the the XXXBox... you... don't want to go there.

And you DEFINITELY don't want to ask for Peaches. Or Destiny. Or Madame Hung Lo. DEFINITELY not Madame Hung Lo.
The one after that is going to be called Castlemaine (four X as in the beer :o)

How about the Xbox Xob X?

I have to hand it to Microsoft, they know how to make names roll off the tongue like petrified molasses.
Posted June 12, 2017
How about a totally different name: "WHOCARESABOUTANAMEYOULLBUYITANYWAY-Box"

It's a subliminal message to tell us rich first-worlders that we hllive in excess.

XS:One 360.
Excess: One three sixty.

Even one last-gen console is living in excess.

It seems there is no end to Microsoft's strategic X reserves.
