you are right.  But in an era of focusing on the box, vendors are
forgetting that solid software and knowledgable support are just as
important.

Possibly slow down a bit on rolling all those new features and widgets
into the software.... Make the software do what it should, reliably.. then
put the new stuff in there.

ie.. bug scrub a train, per chassis.  Make it solid.. then put the toyz
in.

easier said than done when everybody wants every fancy new feature 110%
solid and yesterday.
