Dear Janet (yes, that's a condescending 'Dear')...I've been married to the
same woman for 27 years in two more days and I've come to realise that I
can't win arguments with the opposite sex once they've mad up their minds.
My point was that it didn't work with 20,000,00 browsers and my unsaid point
was that for a major release they might have done a bit better at beta
testing.
In the 'old' days if you did beta tests you were expected to test as
completely as you could and in exchange for that, the company would issue
you one of the first releases for free. The last I looked at Allaire's
policy on this (and I might be wrong...if I remember, I was wrong once) was
that the beta was open to it's 'Subcribing customers' (which doesn't count
as snot as they already have a year's worth of software coming to them) and
that in the later stages they release it to the public at large, of course,
with no free issuances.
I'm still doing beta testing for some of the companies that supply
components for Visual Basic and when one of these components hits the market
you can be darn sure that they'll work with nearly every VB compiler out
there ;) That's the difference between being a popular company and and
excellent company.
