I'd like to live in that universe too. If I'm not too loopy, I think there were some patches for 8i, like they broke exp right at the end, and some security patches while they dithered about how to implement security patching. I haven't done windows too much, but weren't there like 15 post-terminal patches for it?

The answer lies somewhere in the land between regression testing and sustaining support.
