What is CE in Windows CE ?

[Kris Kumar]

Is it

1. Compact Edition
or
2. Consumer Electronics edition

And which one is the historically correct?

The Official Windows CE Newsgroup FAQ (http://www.jasondunn.com/windowsce/faq/index.htm), created by none other than Jason, agrees:

Thanks,

I had a bet going with my buddy. And I was having a tough time searching the web for the term CE.
