I am one to say I told you so. Microsoft released a press release:
Anderson provided a preview of how Microsoft’s private cloud will become even more powerful with Windows Server “8” and announced that the operating system will officially be named Windows Server 2012. The new “cloud-optimized OS” is due out later this year.
Strangely the release was issued before he actually announced this at the keynote; I’m about 10 rows from Anderson now.

They always do that. You’d think they’d wait until after the keynote to keep up the pretense.
So MS again Following the Year Suffix in naming new products.
