Actually, XP is just the designation for the consumer/personal edition of
Windows 2002 (codenamed Whistler). The Professional, Server, Advanced
Server, etc. editions will all use the designation Windows 2002. Similarly,
XP is only used to designate the Office suite and not the individual
products so Word and Access will be Word 2002 and Access 2002, not Word XP
or Access XP.

Confused yet? :)

Aren't they now using Whistler to stand for "Windows XP Server" ? Ie, the
server version of the XP line.
