Those periods help, though. 10.3.6 is a lot easier to get than "4.16". It's when the .x or .x.x get into the double digits that the number gets (IMO) awkward-looking and odd.

Yes, but being forced to explain that your +.01 update is "so good, we cranked it up to 11" is (dare I say) pretty lame.

OK, anyway, no more from me on this one! I'm not in Marketing, just playing one on TV, so perhaps I'm wrong. But I still think we'll see an evolutionary iTunes 5.0 before we see iTunes 4.10.
