I am learning some things from this SmartTag fiasco
a) Every build that ends up outside Redmond is immediately assumed to be how the final product will work, things like removing audio drivers in a build to test dynamic update will lead people to believe that Microsoft will ship an os without audio drivers in an attempt to get everyone to connect to Microsoft’s update site
b) People can get so caught up in a use of a technology that they completely ignore what the tech is really meant to do
c) This is an why PR and secrecy exists and are important
