They are not at all different. In the VFP/Mac case, I had a list of
over two dozen documented bugs that were known during the beta (yes, I
had the cookies to show for them) that remained in the released
product. All I had asked was for the top 6 (the ones that prevented it
from being usable) to be fixed. No promise for future development was
requested; just a few bugs to be fixed. I think the fact that they
knowingly released a buggy product showed that marketing decisions
were far more important than technical considerations.
