Neptune was the codename for a version of Microsoft Windows under development in 1999. Based on Windows 2000, it was originally intended to replace the Windows 9x series and was scheduled to be the first home consumer-oriented version of Windows built on Windows NT code. Internally, the project's name was capitalized as NepTune.
