I'm not harping on this to bust your balls, but if you offered an option like this I would be interested in finding out more.

Hi Will,
Of course this would be possible. However there are still a number of concerns that would need to be addressed. What would our responsibilities for support be? How much would it cost us? Who is responsible when an OS upgrade occurs which creates a compatibility issue? Can we charge our clients extra for this? Should we? And would customers be willing to pay for this? "Technical" is one thing. "Policies", legal issues, how it affects our business model etc are all quite different.
