Re: XP has no significant bugs that any significant number of users want fixed



Hello Guy,

"Gates: No! There are no significant bugs in our released software that
any significant number of users want fixed. "

LOL. If he realized how important it is to listen they could sell so much more.

"Luddites don't know how to use software properly" -Bill Gates

Problem is, he doesn't seem to understand what people really expect from software. Meaning the kind of people willing to plunk down serious money.


Thus my philosophy is never to upgrade SW or an OS unless there is a show-stopper reason for it. When I can buy an older version with a proven track record versus a glitzy new version, I will buy the older version.

The only OS from Microsoft that is high quality by my standards is MS-DOS.

Regards, Joerg
