That's a sort of fair point but how many of us sell thousands (lots more maybe ?) of copies of software to people expecting it to work and if a bug is found to get it fixed. I would think that the programmers know exactly where to look for a bug. If you work on a product you get to know these things. Well I would have thought so anyway. But maybeMicrosoft are allowed exemption for a reason Im unaware of. Actualy corel as well it seems. Who just told me to reinstall PhotoImpact because it screws up tif files. I don't get that either.
