Scumbria, >>>Intel and Microsoft know about dozens of Win 95 problems that appear on Intel
chips. That doesn't stop either company from shipping.<<<

Sure, but it's a matter of the severity of the problem, isn't it.

A sev. 0 may stop shipments and start a recall.

A sev. 1 may call for a field patch pronto.

A sev. 2 may call for a field bulletin describing the problem.

etc.
