"The quality that they deserve"
"The worst scenario for us is that we release an update which has quality problems. We believe the downstream problems of releasing patches too quickly are even more serious than not putting in the quality that they deserve."

Soo... you'd rather release a patch that's late and of inferior quality, than one that's timely and of inferior quality.

(Not counting XP Service Pack 2, which kills these puppies stone cold dead, apparently by accident.)
