Fortunately Debian hasn't fallen into that marketing trickery.

I kept waiting for Microsoft to release Windows 00 last year.  Let's
see if they release Windows 31 (read Windows Three One) in 30 years.
It would follow their recent number scheme (Win95 Win98) and have
rather amusing results.  (recall that Windows 3.1 (read Windows Three
One) is obsolete in Windows-land)
