Wellllllllll, I wouldn't say that, as I've been on 9206 (hp-ux 11i) for a while. What you should do is figure out if the known bugs in each affect you (see the descriptions in the patches, and test), and whether 9208 might be the way to go until you can get to 10. For my environment, 9206 is better and I'll be evaluating 9208 sometime, depending on a third-party vendors 10ishness. Sometimes you can mindlessly throw hardware at a latch issue or shared_pool at a 4031, but no one logging on might be considered more nasty. I don't seem to have any of these problems, fortunately.

I've seen some pretty strong opinions both ways on 9205 v 9206, seems very site-dependent.
