xrProOS is the name of the OS just like iOS, MacOS, tvOS. No one will be referring to these names except for some developers.Man, what has happened to Apple's ability to name products well?
We have no idea if this is the actual name.Man, what has happened to Apple's ability to name products well?
Yup, I get that it's the OS name. An OS is still a product. I disagree that its just developers that will have to use this, average consumers often know about the OS their stuff runs (especially with iOS, iPadOS and watchOS. At least MacOS has the other naming scheme that people can use).xrProOS is the name of the OS just like iOS, MacOS, tvOS. No one will be referring to these names except for some developers.
xrOS is still bad. For one, it's inconsistent with the times they used in X product names (or even XR, for that matter).We have no idea if this is the actual name.
xrOS seems more likely.

This initial device isn’t going to be very useful as it’s for those folks that will BUILD the personal and commercial applications.Same here. I'm betting there'll be a suite of AR applications that will come with the device when it's released. I think many will be surprised about how useful they'll be - for both personal and commercial applications.
He would've scrapped this whole project. Tim has been distancing himself from it and reports say he's skeptical, but he doesn't have the guts to cancel it. He should listen to Steve's advice when he said "focusing is about saying no". Reality Pro will be the next Newton, I guarantee it.*channeling Steve Jobs* "I hate it, the name is ridiculous, change it."

No. Maybe you were seeing this in another forum. It certainly wasen't here or any reputable news site. What "people"?For those old enough to remember the iPad launch like me, remember when it launched and people laughed at the idea of it being called “iPad”, equivocating it to female pads and stupid crap like that?
There were definitely a bunch of those jokes made on MacRumors around the launch of the iPad and around the launch of other lines like the Mini. In particular, I remember people joking when the Mini came out that would also be a larger iPad called a MaxiPad. They weren't good jokes, but they were here.No. Maybe you were seeing this in another forum. It certainly wasen't here or any reputable news site. What "people"?

Same was true of the iPhone, it didn’t even have dev tools at first.as it’s for those folks that will BUILD the personal and commercial applications.
It was literally a Saturday Night Live Skit. Pretty much everyone in the world was making fun of the iPad and its name. The SNL skit said it's just a big phone named after a Maxie Pad. Search Youtube if you need to.No. Maybe you were seeing this in another forum. It certainly wasen't here or any reputable news site. What "people"?
