According to announcements made at Microsoft, Windows 10, as being released later this year, will be the last new major version of Windows. Microsoft's plans for the future are to offer Windows as a subscription service (like Office 365) and service the as-released Windows 10 with incremental updates. From what I've also read, security patches will be released for consumer users of Windows 10 as they become ready, rather than each of them being grouped for release on a monthly "Patch Tuesday" update cycle (although enterprises will likely see a modified version of Patch Tuesday which will allow them to control the rollout of updates to Windows 10 PCs in their organizations).
From the way I'm looking at this (and I could be interpreting it wrong), it looks as if Microsoft is taking a similar route as Apple has done with Mac OS X and releasing incremental updates to the "finalized" Windows 10 product. After all, there hasn't been a Mac OS 11 yet-even though the first release of OS X was in 2001, with the software receiving several incremental upgrades since then (even with the Macintosh platform's switch from PowerPC to Intel x86 family processors.)
