Uh. I believe I defended more than myself in the post. :-)
Ya have to remember that statements can easily be misinterpreted in forums. I was just trying to accurate and to the point. Your statement seemed more directed at the replies in this post than to the situation in general.
People are trying to wait patiently, but DAZ themselves added to the "frenzy of the tizzy" by putting a "4 days and counting..." message in their newsletter, after rescheduling the Platinum Club release from approx Nov 26th to approx Dec 2nd. The message implied that they were confident in their progress, but then they missed the Dec 2nd date. Since the message got some people excited about getting D|S (like a kid getting a new bike), I can understand why people were (and some still might be) in a tizzy. Personaally, I think we will be lucky to see D|S as a Christmas present. And that is not the full public beta in December. I'm talking about the pre-release to the Platinum Club members. The full beta most likely will not happen until next year, given the current "plan".
