I am somewhat surprised that somebody has not started a thread on this topic
already but am I the only one to wonder just what the heck is happening on
the quality assurance front at HP with the Express 3, linkedit, Powerpatch
3, Powerpatch 4 mess. Gilles Schipper's recent post on possibly having to
backdate to 4.0 in certain circumstances really brought this to a head. Is
this mess another symptom, along with problems with sales as detailed in an
earlier thread, of some significant problems at HP? Or, am I just kind of in
a funk (generated by 2 weekends of work trying to do an OS update that
involved (1) bad release media and (2) a DDS drive crapping out while I am
waiting to reboot the half-updated system from the CSLT tape) and this whole
situation is taking on more significance than it warrants.
 
Anyone care to reassure (or further depress) me?
