I've been wondering this for awhile - I bought Vanilla in 2003, and got a version 1.07 disc. I'd long thought there was probably a 1.00, but after some recent forum archaeology, it looks like 1.16 was the first patch, so perhaps 1.07 was the initial release version?

So I'm curious if anyone who bought on release is able to verify or disprove that 1.07 is the first version.

It's mainly an academic curiosity, but I've also been studying the scenario file format a bit, correlating changes with patches, and that got me wondering if there was an earlier version again.
 
There was definitely a Conquests 1.00. Judging from my post history, I didn't buy vanilla until 2 years after release, so also 2003.

Hmm, speaking of snooping through post history, maybe bug reports, SGs, stories, HoF, or other public game threads may help you figure this out.
