Personally, I'd much rather it appeared in 2006 and was super stable with all the bells and whistles than if it appeared tomorrow in a Microsoft inspired fit of making it to the marketplace early (earlier?) and having numerous "service packs" or "enhancements" to download.
What credibility would it have if it turned out to be unreliable or incomplete?
Hyperion understand well that it's not just their reputation on the line, but that of Amiga on the whole so the requirement for fully functional software is clear.
Let's just hope it's not too much longer though, eh chaps? It's been "almost ready" for two years now so I can well understand the impatience.
