Still can't get over them making a big deal about 10 being the last one ever.

They didn't. A single low level.employee misspoke at a trade show and the press/internet commentators made a big deal out of it.

I specifically remember "last version of windows" in the commercials and stuff, but I looked it up after reading your comment, and you appear correct. Mandella effect, or just faulty memory?

I remember that too, but more likely it was just repeated in news articles and forums and we remember it being an official tagline.
