Vista: fit for purpose...
,----[ Quote ]
| No, software should have at least a limited "fitness for purpose?"
| warranty. It costs enough (even Freeware costs money to provision,
| support and de-provision) and it is critical to many businesses.
| Mind you, such a limited warranty would be hard to formulate in practice
| - but without it there's the suspicion that software companies are
| really admitting that they can't write code they can be confident in.
