This.

I'd like to emphasize the QA part and their using the public as beta testers (absolutely true and totally unacceptable). Microsoft's quality control on everything has been terrible lately, which is saying a lot because their quality control has always been crap.

Good thing they have a great marketing team. They will keep producing cool looking ads and presentations that imitate Apple and hope that their customers will forget every buggy and disastrous launch

I don't find the QA part that terrible, freeloaders are the kind of users that would pirate Windows, so rather than being a nuisance they're volunteering themselves to test the OS.

Although it would had been better if they kept their QA teams, since there are issues that only a QA engineer would be able to find.
