Here is the root of the problem;

from the article; (did you even bother to read it?)

" Microsoft releases the public betas in order to get feedback and
telemetry
from testers to improve the product. Apple, on the other hand, will
drop
its
new OS down from heaven (or, rather, Cupertino), without soliciting a
word
of feedback on in-development code from ordinary users."

IOW; you get what Jobs and Apple think you should get.
And you fools lap it up.


Of course we can expect you to take that position. But possibly Jobs
and company are just able to figure it out without all the fanfare MS
is
using to salvage the fiasco that Vista was/is.
So a handful of minds, decide on how millions of other minds should work?
How droll.
And that is different from all those other things you buy or watch on TV
how?

Apple consistently shows that they do understand what their users want
as shown by the brand loyalty they exhibit.

3% world market share shows just how much they understand. "Brand loyalty"
is not too smart of a philosophy. You miss out on so many other options.
That has what to do with here, where you are?


You don't need public betas and such to find that out, there are other
less obtrusive and visible ways.

No? Care to name a few "less obtrusive" and a few "less visible ways"?
Telepathic communication perhaps? The phases of the moon? Reading chicken
entrails? Consulting the Oracle of Delphi?
Oh, you mean how Microsoft does things with, um, Vista?

Um no.

In case you didn't bother to read, or don't know how to read, or have no reading comp;

" Microsoft releases the public betas in order to get feedback and telemetry
from testers to improve the product. Apple, on the other hand, will drop its
new OS down from heaven (or, rather, Cupertino), without soliciting a word
of feedback on in-development code from ordinary users."

If Microsoft relies on Beta's then why has Windows been such a security nightmare for so many, many consumers, schools, small-businesses, and corporations?

Because you lump "Windows" into every version that has ever been released instead of discussing Wndows Vista and Windows 7.


But the core is still the same.
Bugs and NSA back doors.
