It started long before BillG. IBM had a policy that once they got to a certain number of bugs per thousand lines of code, that the software was released.

>Evan, I agree that the Windows software is becoming less buggy. I use W2000 at the office, and I rarely have to reboot. However, at home, I still have W98, and it crashes several times a day. I was comparing the 'modern software', e.g., Windows (but others as well) with the pre-Window, pre-Bill Gates, pre-PC days. And I believe there is a big difference between these two eras of software development.
