So far it seems like the "Wolfram System" and the future "Mathematica 10.0" are the same thing (see: http://reference.wolfram.com/language/tutorial/WolframSystem... )

Licensing doesn't seem to have changed: http://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/SystemAndLicense...

So it's "A New Kind of Marketing" ?

part of the problem Mathematica has is that people assume it's just for math, which isn't the case. it's a very general system. this renaming, while utterly dorky and aesthetically hamhanded, will at least help clear that misunderstanding

Correct, it seems to be a repackaged Mathematica, with better deployment options.
