Actually I tend to agree with you on this one Vile one...
I consider the first run of almost every product a more or less Beta run.....I Beta GOLD
run perhaps but Beta none the less and that's natural enough. No matter how long
and how varied you make your testing you can't possibly match human creativety and
destructiveness. So is this unique to Apple? Nope...not at all. I myself usually wait
to at the very least the second run of a product to purchase since I don't wish to be a
Beta tester but to some degree we all are not matter how long we wait for something
new is always being tried.
