I'm sorry, Nate, but I completely disagree with you.
If I buy a program from a 3rd party, then I am not responsible for doing "QA" on that software - that's the responsibility of the company which produces the software. By your argument, if I buy any piece of software and find a bug in it, then it's
my fault for not doing QA on the software? I'm afraid that sounds completely irrational to me!
It's one thing to blame someone for something which is their fault, but quite another to blame them in a situation in which they appear to be no more than an innocent victim of "blunders" made a third party.
