My two cents worth is:  when you consider that almost all problems are 
experienced with new Linux applications or new OS's, they are nothing like the 
Microsoft experience, when you get your first bug fix less than a week after 
paying another $100 for your upgrade.  

So once in a while something unpleasant happens that should have been taken 
care of prior to release, stuff happens.  At least it doesn't happen several 
times each week, like with Microsoft.
