Now where have I heard that before -- Oh yes, I remember, back
in the 70's when 8-bit micro's cost as much as a small car and
memory wasn't so cheap as is it is now. We'll fix it when we go
16bit, heck -- we have nearly 30 years to do this and we'll need
new hardware before then.

By the early 80's it was already getting hard to change, but heck
-- we have nearly 20 years yet......

We have nearly a decade...

We have a couple of years...

If we botch around it some more we can hide the problem....

We have to fix this some time, and the longer we leave
it the more it will hurt.
