You have to also understand it is not just the developers involved in the decision to release products (hardware & software), sales & marketing are involved. Developers would prefer no new products for two years so the existing product can be fine tuned and tweaked. Sales & marketing want a new product out every quarter to boost revenue. I'm way over generalizing but you get the point. :) So I'd bet sales management pressed for the release of SBS 7.6 way before it was ready. Based on the recent info regarding Logitech (bad earnings, CEO departs, bumbling Revue price slashed, etc...) I'd bet sales management is scrambling to stop the bleeding and SBS 7.6 is a part of that optimistic solution. So much so that it looks like the next major release of SBS will be renamed LMS and will probably tie in with video products, Revue and others. ;) -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=89142 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
