Oh, now I see. They should just do it internally.

Maybe they should do all the testing internally and not have any open betas for any Microsoft products at all. That'd be a great way to make quality products.

Get real, pre-release versions don't exist to give you free software, they exist so Microsoft can find and eliminate problems they just can't find internally. Of the billion Windows PCs in the world, most are not at Microsoft.
