Wait, 10?? What'd they do, just decide to skip 9 since the odd-numbered ones are the ones that work?

Who knows? Maybe to distance themselves from the bad experience people are getting with 8?

Actually, I am REALLY happy it's 10... I have 20 years of code, some of which differentiates between Win9x, WinXP, and etc... Probably quite a bit of it does something different if it finds 'windows 9' in the version. Especially batches... Hunnerts of them. That may well be why they skipped Win9, and I thank them for it!
