It's BETA for cryin' out loud. Naturally beta versions are going to have bugs.

Shhhhhh!!! You'll spoil everyone's MS-bashing fun. Including those who aren't familiar with the Beta testing concept.

1) There are allot of pro Microsoft guys saying that this is a problem. These are experienced beta testers for Microsoft, not some guys chatting on a random Internet forum.

2) If you're releasing a major application / OS you *better* have it pretty much nailed within 6 months of release. Small bugs here and there are fine but when the vendors who are trying to develop software for the platform are, due to core stability, unable to release application there is a big problem.
