The point of my original post was that sufficient testing must be done 
by the developer to ensure that bugs are encountered AFTER the user is 
aleady hooked.

Who missed the point?

There is a ratio of bugs to understandable usefulness.  Raise that 
quotient for TAOO and its adoption rate will change.

If that level of effort doesn't seem worthwhile to you, you may have to 
be content shipping commercialy successfuly software at a rate that 
leave the rest of us in the dust.
