I think the blame is being placed incorrectly. It seems that the code in question was part of a library licensed/purchased by MS to develop the Zune? That library functionality didn't have enough unit tests to test for correct functionality. I don't see any reason to believe that MS should conduct additional unit tests on a purchased library. This is poor code QA from the original developer, not MS. -- Take care | This clown speaks for himself, his job doesn't Wayne D. | supply this, at least not directly Facts, though interesting, are irrelevant ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
