Bert, I agree with you, but I do understand BudDC's point.
I remember part of the permutations formula from statistics which involved N! (N factorial), and remember just how huge that number got very quickly. I believe that the best bet in keeping some mission critical piece of software alive is to keep N to the smallest possible number. My staff are not allowed to use the AC system for anything other than AC and UpDox. We have some Macs on the network that they are free to use if they want to check Expedia or whatnot. Our system is maintained by IT professionals, and we did not scrimp on hardware.
Now having said that, I feel we have done our part. When at this point AC does weird things (and we are still on 5.029), I am really sure it is not our fault. I feel that the fact is, AC is buggy, and version 6 sounds even buggier. I feel stability and cleanliness issues are getting glossed over in the rush to greatness. I fret that this is going to be its undoing. "If you can't find the time to do it right, when will you find the time to do it over?"
