Let's see, people build their own computers now and there are an infinite number of mother boards, chip sets, video cards, memory, etc to deal with so it's not at all possible to test a piece of software on EVERY configuration available. Second, with the rate at which technology is changing and computers are becoming obsolete by the month and not by the week now.......you'd have to write an entire software product in less than a week and release it the second week to guarantee that it would not have some problem with some component of a computer. We all know this isn't going to happen. Think about this, how long did it take CL to write Poser 6. Let's say they worked on it for a year. Well, one year ago, 1 GB of RAM was thought to be top end......not 2 GB. By the time the product had hit the shelves, things had changed. It will happen every time. The result will be buggier software from now own.
