or any -other- device that is a first-run release. See? I -learned-
when M$ went from DOS 3.0 to 3.01, 3.1, 3.11, 3.12, 3.2, 3.21, 3.22,
3.3, 3.31, 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0, etc... Sure, the hardware was
changing, and the bugs were still getting worked out, but bottom line,
as far as I can tell, M$ has -never- released a dependable software
product, first-run. Not even IBM machines, running IBM Dos were
infallible, nor immune to the 'update/upgrade' system. Following along
those lines, 'apt-get update', and 'apt-get upgrade' look eerily familiar...
