You know, the drivers could have just gotten better over time. Remember when Vista came out, they moved to a new driver model, and there were lots of bugs...people were worried about untrusted shader code bringing down machines (not quite security vulnerability, but definitely a DOS!).

These days, the driver model is more mature, drivers that consumers have are a bit more robust, they probably re-evaluated their worries, which I think is great! Dynamism and flexibility is good in big.corp.
