Windows XP build 2480 is a build of Windows XP. The build number is mentioned at the closing Q&As during the Windows XP Expert Zone event when discussing the Homestead and Metallic themes. Build 2481 (idx01) is also mentioned.

I think you saw Metallic and Homestead today. They come in, they'll be in, not the next IDW [sic] which is 2475. That'll be in... We'll do 2480, maybe 81, depending on a couple of things and when a couple of things come in.
