M$ hasn't ever been reliable. Why should they start all of a sudden?
If it is everything they say it is, they won't release it. Just like
Detroit. They DIDN'T put a Wenkle-style rotary engine in the Corvette
because they realized that it wouldn't wear out. NASA can build a probe
that can functionally fly through space for thirty years without human
contact and yet we can't build a car that will out-do 150k miles without
a struggle. It's called planned obsalecence. They won't release
anything that's too good, because then, what's the incentive to buy the
next one?
