But still, why bother?  I've had someone in -questions ask the same thing
that the people in this thread have.  I think the userbase (and myself)
would feel much more comfortable running the standard (and proven) 1.2.1
instead of a potentially buggy 1.3 alpha, even if they are "basically the
same." 

Just because the code is "basically" the same doesn't mean there aren't
hidden bugs that were created in the move to Winblows NT. 

Andrey, I think you're outnumbered...:)
