So for the most of the world, one million point ninety nine: 1,000,000.99 becomes 1.000.000,99 in Danish. This is one area where we're admittedly backwards. There's been talk of changing the rules since school children are using technology with international notation these days.

No. That would be one. With a lot of zeroes behind it. I've never heard of anyone use commas instead of decimal points. Commas for thousands and up, decimal points for any sort of fraction. I never remember it being any other way.
