[QUOTE="hairybadger, post: 878608, member: 389459"] I work in software development. I've learnt never, ever to trust a statement like this :) "Tested and works fine" is one thing. "Tested by 10s of 000s of users in real-world conditions over a non-trivial period of time and works fine" is something else entirely. Example: each version of Windows undergoes extensive testing on varied hardware by legions of testers before it's released into the wild, but woe betide the end-user who dares install it on their own hardware before the first fixpack arrives.
