I am reading quite a lot about Windows 7 builds but ... what the heck does the 'winmain' bit mean ?

I have seen quite a few screenshots where the build number is followed by winmain ...

    The main kernel version, I believe. In programming, it is the main part of the program in Windows. WinMain(), which replaced main() in standard C++ programming.

    So, I believe that the main kernel version is build # of the kernel using WinMain(). The rest of the components don't need to be upgraded, usually.
