Even the low grade Nescafe pods trump instant. (well maybe apart from the
red decaf ones)
Anyway...Gone are the days of International Roast and or Caterers Blend, my
friend.
And good riddance to them, I say.

Hahahaha!  I hadn't consider the Teutonic syntax implications of using 9.

I suspect it is more for branding and marketing

1: To make a clean break from W8.  By choosing "10" it shows a big leap
forward from the current offering.
2: 10 is a nice 'countdown' type number. Solid.
3: it is also a nice score - Watch for headlines like "Windows 10 out of
10!"  blah blah.
4: Surprise factor.  Everyone was expecting Windows 9 - so this will shake
it up a bit and get your attention.
5: There is the nerd binary factor of using 1 and 0 in the OS's name
(although maybe it is just me)

I am sure there are more, but it is early here in Oz and I am in need of a
Coffee.  What is worse we only have the 'low grade' Nescafe pods left until
our new order arrives. - Grim days indeed.

Hmmmm...

I guess they skipped the next number to avoid everyone saying:

Windows?  Nein!
