Does anyone know if this is still the case with current releases of 
Windows OSses?

As an aside, supposedly, Linux wasn't *as* susceptable to this because 
you could make allowances at kernel-config-time and beyond that, the 
kernel and modules would decide what they saw when they were first 
invoked, particularly at boot time. In other words, if you compiled an 
everything-but-the-kitchen-sink kernel and booted to it and/or started 
the modules, they would sense rev-level issues and switch themselves 
appropriately (such as the CMD640 IDE bug).

As other people have, I ask here off-topically because of the general 
sharp-cookie quotient.
