I think that developers in the information tech realm have conditioned us to accept things that would not be acceptable in other arenas. If you bought a new car, and there were problems, that car would be considered a lemon, and you would even have some legal recourse, but tech users have been conditioned to just put up with it.

Hi There, you say, in regard to bugs, "on any device. Our job is to find them and report them to Apple Accessibility right away." Actually it's not. People who are not beta testers do not deserve to be treated as such. this trend toward effectively making the general user population into free beta testers is at best, lazy and disgraceful and disrespectful. Make no mistake, this is not an Apple issue per se, but a more generalized software paradigm that I find absolutely abhorrent Unfortunately, the general public either does not know ways they can change this or cannot escape the need or technology addiction to send a message that this is not acceptable to them. So for us, no, this is not our job. However, I think you meant something a bit differently from the way I took it. :) Since we are users of this software, yes, we should take every opportunity to make our voices heard and voice clearly and positively what we need and / or want. I say positively, because having our voices heard is not only a right but a privilege. So be civil, make it count, and treat people with respect. Apple has gone out of their way to make giving feedback easy and available to us so use it and thank the people you come into contact with. I think they'll be glad you did and it will surely make them happy to pass your needs and desires along to the right folks. Just my three cents. :) Smiles and happy weekend to y'all, Cara :) On Sep 28, 2013, at 1:07 AM, BBS <[email protected]> wrote: on any device.
