"The testament that Orb is being shipped to the general public after only 1 month of beta testing speaks very well of its engineering. "

Until then pal, it doesn't exist. Just like click.

Rocky,

>>>>>Beta testing is the last stage of product testing before it's released to the general public.<<<<<

That's strange, I swear I have been beta testing a number of software packages I bought from the retail store. Because months after I bought them, patches come out. Patch versions 1,2,3 and so on, ranging in the size of 5-13 megs.

I think the general public have now become the TRUE beta testers!!

Codswallop; it's a sure sign of cutting corners.
