What does everyone have against the name 720?

Because quite frankly it sounds dumb, and it's a non-sequitor.  Microsoft doesn't have to follow a formula when naming their future consoles the way Sony has chosen to do with the Playstation brand.

It's like when everyone assumed the successor to the Super NES would be the Ultra NES (which it was originally called Ultra 64 before they changed the name to N64), and everyone assuming that the successor to the Saturn would be named after another planet, rumored to be "Neptune" after the ill-fated Genesis/32X combo unit that never saw official release, and then changed to "Uranus" for April Fool's jokes lol.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
