why do Microsoft have to keep rushing in new features at such a short time, with so little time for testing?!Source:

Font colour edit mine, they ALWAYS have been doing that, unfortunately. Do you remember Windows Phone 7 and 8? Yeah, I'm one of those guinea pigs that got suckered in with the promise of the goodness of Windows Mobile 6, but better and modernized. It was just so awfully bare-bones, to such an extent that MS Office Mobile it came with is very laughable.
Take Excel, for example. Excel Mobile on 6-6.5 can handle complex stuff, several formats, and insert/delete cells. The 7-8 version? BIU-strike through formats, along with one currency or percentage setting, and 3 of each cell and text colours. It's just... Ugh.
Anyway, with that said, comes Windows Phone 8. Unfortunately, they told us that current WP 7 users wouldn't be able to upgrade to 8, due to differing architecture, and because WP8 runs on better systems and stuff. In the way of an half-assed apology, we got a WP7.8, which only adds more personalisation options, and... That was it.
I bought a Windows Phone 8 phone once again, but mainly because I love Nokia's Lumia 1020. How about now? Well, it was good, and a step in the right direction, but once again they told us we won't be getting WP10 because of a different architecture! What the shit?
I did manage to get Windows Mobile 10 running, but they pulled it off because it was causing several glitches.
TL;DR : As someone who got screwed by MS not once, not twice, but THRICE... I can certainly say that they rushed it out too much, and they have little idea of how to handle certain stuff.
I'm sorry this got on a little too long, about Windows Phones. It's technically not a computer, but I need to say it out about Microsoft and the related "they didn't test it out". They certainly didn't.
Fooled me once (WP7 promised so much), shame on you.
Fooled me twice (WP7 users are screwed), shame on me.
Fool me three times (WP8 users are screwed)... what was I thinking?
