    Windows Morph, just like the codename :)

    Even if it is still based on the Vista Codepath like Windows 7, I think a version number of at least 6.5 would be warranted going by beta interface look.
    6.0.& --> Vista
    6.1.& --> Windows 7
    6.2.& --> (currently Windows 8 versioning)
    6.8.& --> A realistic number all things considered
    9.0.& --> Realistic 'Windows 9' version number (assuming Windows 9 will be based on a new codepath).

    I like WZOR's Windows 2012 Apocalypse Edition, although who could have guessed "Vista" from "XP"? Microsoft gets creative with names.
