Which is exactly why they have the equivalent of what Microsoft calls "Hotfixes" for people who find something broken.... Seriously: "we have a new package made every night that has the latest security/performance/stability fixes" is -far- better than what most commercial offerings have. I have personally seen someone install a new Windows XP machine and have it compromised before he could finish installing SP1 and SP2. I personally found it amusing and typical... but the fact that supplied-software is constantly out of date is hardly unique to Slim ... it is the norm these days. Software is "too easy" to change, so fixes are a continual process. (Or a bunch of "patch tuesday" releases from Microsoft, periodic "service packs" and "hot fixes" for the more obscure problems.) If you expect all software to be bugfree out of the box: stick with console games: being burned to ROMs or pressed to a CD makes extensive testing mandatory. (Though that is changing now since "patches" can be installed online.) > > I would wish a 6.5.2 release NOW with nothing else but a fix to this > problem or eventually an official patch. You don't want any of the other 6.5.1 bugs fixed? -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34705 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
