I got an answer to my question on another thread.  The build number does NOT increment with every build as one, or at least I, might have thought.  But it does increment every day!  Revision increments every two seconds in case you were wondering.  The only thing I don't understand is how the day count got set so high, 3272 in my case, since I only started this project a year ago.  But I can live with it as long as it does change, even if it is only once a day.
The date is set at some epoch, 3272 days ago was just shy of 9 years ago, the year 2000.

...the same year Microsoft started work on .NET and the CLR. Which makes sense.

I imagine they would have gone for the 1970 epoch, but that would give you a build number of around 13870, which is slightly too large.

If you want customd-defined version numbers you'll need to roll your own MSBuild scripts, and I don't suggest altering AssemblyInfo with every build since that'l wreck havok with Source Control.
