   The weird thing is it was only JBOD, and I really can't see the code for   
   something that simple being especially difficult to maintain, or even   
   need to change at /all/ from one version to the next.   
      
   But then, this is Microsoft we're talking about. Maintaining the code   
   for "Hello World" would probably require a whole department of dilberts,   
   and several million dollars, and they'd still somehow manage to screw it   
   up.
