Where does the name vBulletin come from anyways? Bulletin is obvious, but what about the v?

Originally it was written as forum software for vB World ( www.vbworld.com ), but it does not stand for Visual, nor does it stand for Virtual, and it's not cause it's the next letter. :)

For the longest time i thought it was version bulletin because v usually means version.
Now,i think vBulletin because vBworld was who it was at first written for.
