+1 Insightful

I know that apple did gobs of ui testing, or used to, but I've heard
they either don't, or the data is from the 80's still, etc etc.  I'd
like to see some tests done, similar to the UI testing that Sun (? I
think) did a year or two back.  Elsewise you're right, it's a bunch of
geeks chiming in with their own opinions (no offense to all, I do it as
well.... :)
