RE: Do people want public betas?

[Les Kriegler]

Hi Walter,

I participated in the public beta process, and I think some of the bugs were
squashed, or at least improved upon.  IE5 and Outlook 98 work better in
certain areas from my testing.  I am concerned that at least one feature in
Quicken 98 and the Citibank software were broken in the new release, and
that's certainly disappointing.  I hate to see features that worked before
no longer working properly, that's not progress.  Bottom line here is that
HJ's philosophy seems to be to get the product out the door and release
patches later if necessary.  That's the reality that I see existing.  But to
say that the public beta process was a waste of time is not accurate in my
view.
Best Regards,

Les
