Well microsoft, even though it is bug-ridden software, is good enough software to allow people to do what they want and need to do. If they didn't develope any software that didn't do what they needed to do, no one would buy it. Microsoft is one of the most complete office component out there and they didn't get that for being a monopoly either. You have competitors such as Star Office, but right now they are not as good.
There isn't anyone holding a gun to your head to use microsoft products, the main reason why you are using their product is becuse it is the best available. If there were something better, you would probably use it.
There are bugs in Microsofts programs because people still buy them with bugs in it. And they can always distribute bug fixes through the internet.
If the market didn't allow for products to be so buggie, by people just not choosing to buy their "buggie" products, then they would change how they handle it.
I am just not in favor of having the government of telling us how we should code our software. If I want to create software with bugs, and people want to use my buggie software. I should have the "freedom" to do that.
