A E I O U and sometimes Y

Not being funny, but when did y become a vowel?

Actually, I think they are following a logical progression of english vowels, i.e.,

"A" would indicate a pre-beta release - not suitable for marketing or Micro$oft quality,
"E" is overused already with all the E-this.com and E-that.com's crashing and burning,
"I" is the current flavor in IT marketing. See HPUX 11i, Oracle 9i, etc, "O" will be for "Oh my gods! How will I ever manage this monster!" in the next generation of systems,
"U" and "Y" are yet to be determined... Or maybe combined into "YU" (why you)...

Its just a theory, I could be wrong.
