Virus Classic is just a renamed Virus B (which is discontinued) and the reason why Access sell it is that there are so many people who want to buy a cheaper/older Virus model, not the flagship model. And it's quite obvious that it won't have any major OS updates because the current os for Virus B works very well and doesn't need updates. And they are already using the dsp of the synth to the maximum. If you take a look at the Virus B's history, you can see that there were lots of os updates and even the reverb wasn't included at first. They added it later among other features. There are still many studios which use Virus B and haven't even upgraded to C because the B is already a very good synth and gives you the classic Virus sound without any compromises.
