   How is the
lack of V7.2-1 a problem?  There's nothing it can do that
 V7.2-1H1 can't. 
From a Hobbyist standpoint it's not.  However, if I understand things
correctly it's only *supported* on a very narrow list of hardware.  Of
course any commercial shop probably had their V7.2-1 CD's long before
V7.2-1H1 came out.

V7.2 is quite old, around 3 years maybe more.

Also one must remember/recognize "DEC" supported means they 
will answer questions or fix it.  Unsupported divers abound in even 7.2
for older hardware.

 From my perspective any version newer than 5.2 is good
save for the standard ".0" releases as they will be buggy.
