Me too.  and if I never have to mess with the routers because they're doing
their job, then why upgrade or futz with them, especially a core router?  I
love to tinker just like everyone else, but the great thing about a
production network is that if everything IS running, then I can let it be
and work on some of the other stuff that's important (like my lab studies
;-)  If I don't need no new features, then I don't upgrade until I do.

I once had a boss who had to have THE LATEST version of code on our network
and would make us schedule IOS upgrades regularly, even when we complained
that there was no value-add to the upgrade.  I guess that's the OTHER
extreme...and then we'd have a relatively short amount of time to configure
the 'new features' of the code into our network (I really learned to hate
frame-relay traffic shaping).
