Yup, thought about it after my HD crashed last year and I had to ask 
Sidney what I'd forgotten to upgrade to from OS 8.6.

Comments, suggestions to add/delete to the following list of a 
standard 8.6 install?

Source		ITEM		Rationale

?????	- ROAM			New to me....source?
				Puts the ROM contents into protected 
RAM allocation

OS 9.1	- html rendering lib		Not critical


OS 8.6	- OS 8.6 Update
	- Carbonlib 1.6		Stability
	- ColorSync 2.6.1		Quality
	- MRJ 2.2.5		Stability?
	- USB Card Support 1.4.1	CardBus-enabled machines
	- MCE Modified USB Drivers	Required for USB Cards on MCE 
CardBus enabled 2400s

OS 7.6.1	- CD-ROM driver		Nice to have, Works with some 
third-party drives

(Totally off-topic, but FWIW, I booted up my old P520(aka LC II or LC 
III?) running Sys 7.6.1  Couldn't believe how fast the Finder felt, 
even with the slow harddrive.)
