Uhhhh...

And Solaris?

btw:  Reminds me of the great Marketing/Engineering split at Sun in 1999.
MS was comint out with NT 5, so Sun's 'droids decided to emphasize the
greater maturity of their Unix with a bigger digit.  Before launch, they
renamed Solaris 2.7 to Solaris 7.  Microsoft pulled a fast-one, and named
their next OS after the 2000 Toyota Camry V-6.
