  1. A "Beta?" by filmmaker · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    How is it that MS can get away with releasing a 'beta' of 7th generation software? Even if there's legitimate reasons for doing such a thing in general, shouldn't MS have the user/test pool to get the thing tested and reasonable before going massive with it?

    At least they're reacting to the marketplace demand for a browser now and not later.
