I think you've been watching too many Shia LaBeouf movies.

Typically when you have MAJOR problems in Beta you weigh that and delay the release if needed. Apple however has too much HUBRIS to do this. Trend Micro did this recently as well. The Beta for Worry-Free Business (Their Enterprise AV solution) was horrible on performance. They released it anyways on schedule. Most customers jumped ship.

This is a pretty big bug to just find now. I mean they only have one hardware to they have to test it on. Oh, and it supposedly affected other devices they rolled it out to as well.

So Handicapped people go through the effort to get handicap placards so they can NOT use them. Your logic is lacking.

Once again, you obviously don't work in IT. You are buying the hype. You use one data point and call it a graph. I work with hundreds of Apple peices of hardware and I can tell you that they fail in hardware all the time and are a lot of times harder to fix if not impossible.

O'RLY? Ok well when you can get a robot to figure out just what it is that the end user wants when the end user doesn't even know what they want, get back to me. In addition when a robot can understand and parse 20 different vertical specific application on 4 major operating systems and 6 different server operating systems across diverse geographical environments then also get back to me. Yeah, like I said before, my job is very secure.

Don't get too far ahead of yourself. There is still a lot of work to do. Robots don't make everything yet.

Yeah. I mean I work in IT and I can tell you that a machine will never replace my job because in the end most of the problems I fix are because a human designed the software or hardware incorrectly or because a human cannot figure out how to use or be trusted with software or hardware. My job is secure until robots design the software and hardware themselves.

Judging by the vast majority of comments on here blaming the Tea party for this crisis, remind me not to ask Slashdot anything related to stocks, finances, running a business or even which bank to use. The users on this website have all fallen into the trap of group think and swallowed the Keynesian Economic model hook, line and sinker. Just wait till you realize your mistake and end up top deck flopping around like a freshly caught fish.

Only on Slashdot would this AC get modded up. Only on Slashdot. Barack Obama was the one playing games. The House of Representatives passed a perfectly fine plan. It was the DEMOCRAT controlled Senate that didn't even let their plan see a vote.
Since When is pointing out the truth of a situation the same as CAUSING the situation? Talk about shooting the messenger.
