So the story goes, there is a lot of active legacy "version-checking" 
code, both from Microsoft and from third-party vendors, that searches the 
Registry for occurrences of the string "Windows 9" while looking for 
versions Windows 95 and Windows 98. Naturally, "Windows 9" would fit that 
parameter, so Microsoft simply skipped it and moved straight to 10.
