Understood!

I'm not sure what SS/SC version you're running (or trying to run :-) )
but I've been closely following SC7 and the SBC software.

The bug fixes and changes have been coming fast and furious for months
now.  How these guys find enough hours in the day I don't know.

They really are very, very responsive, fixing several issues a day,
sometimes in the same hour it was reported.  Replicating the problem
appears to be the hardest issue though.

The changes in SC7 have been tremendous, but the SBC tops them all. 
The beta unit I got back in September was a really cool toy but quite
quirky.  Now it is smooth and polished.  It's still got the occasional
twitch but the improvement has been immense.

Software will always have bugs no matter how much development time and
how many billions of dollars are devoted to it (cough*Vista*cough,
cough).  Rant posts must be quite discouraging to the developers.  They
know there will be problems and don't seem to mind hearing about them,
they do want to tackle bugs but can't do anything with generalized,
non-specific posts which have no documentation of the problem or
follow-up.  Those problems will be ignored, must to the frustration of
the person encountering the problem.

But the fact of the matter is, there are lots of bugs in the bug list
and the ones affecting a large portion of the users and the ones that
are well-documented are tackled first.
