There have been 4 rebrands in the last 25 years.
And WinDoze? Zero rebrands (plenty of variations, but nothing dropping
the base name, even though WinDoze 8 doesn't look remotely like WinDoze
1.0) in the last 27 years.
And Macintosh? Nothing but variations on Mac, with both "Mac" and
"Macintosh" remaining generically valid for the platform as a whole, in
the last 28 years, even though it's gone through two hardware
architecture changes (68000 --> PowerPC --> Intel) and a software
architecture change (from a homebrew proprietary OS like nothing else in
the world to a fork of BSD).
Linux has been Linux for over 20 years, BSD has been BSD for 35, and
Unix has been Unix for over 40.
