Android O

[pnutts]

Next android operating system "O" is called Oreo .

Apparently the staff doing the naming like their snacks - one of which is Oreo's and milk.

Well, that's something they have been doing for a while now.

I thought it was going to be Strawberry Alarm Clock?

Yes I know, thus the joke....

 

Can you imagine if they started naming the OS after old rock bands?

I'd like the Iron Butterfly update..

My wife makes a great Tiramisu - with homemade gluten free lady fingers and Amareto.

I wonder what changes Oreo will come up with. I certainly hope they are significant.
