On the other hand, if we didn't pounce on a new operating system the day it 
came out, but rather waited until som bug fixes came along, how would we know 
what bugs needed to be fixed? How would we know how the system worked in 
practice? Maybe we should demand that there were public betas of the os, but 
until such time, there are bound to be pouncers and there are bound to be bugs 
that pass the private beta testers. and as someone pointed out some time ago, 
much of the quarks that we see could be people who don't really know about how 
to handle certain parts of the system. Take me and the Launchpad, for example. 
I could create a folder by moving apps on top of each other, but i can't for 
the life of me open the folder i created, to view what's inside. I'm sure it's 
only me who makes mistakes and if anyone knows how to do this, i would be 
thankful for advice.
'nough ranting now.
