I don't know if I agree B.D. It is common in my line of business for  
problems to crop up when a product is released. You work like a devil  
to catch the obvious and not-so-obvious ones but no matter how much  
testing you do, real users just do so much more and in ways you  
didn't. It always seems like a "duh" moment when the problems crop  
up. There is just no substitute for thousands of testers.
