If you have an OS which works perfectly until you install a piece of software that doesn't obey guidelines, then yes, I'll blame the software and not the OS. If that makes me like ssolie then that's just fine.
So if I write an OS, and provide guidelines to developers, and then someone writes software that ignores those guidelines, and it breaks a future update - is that my fault or theirs?
Interesting then that Update 4 is announced within a couple months of Update 3.
It's no secret that this is a hotfix.
I don't think anyone is saying OS4 is perfect, but many of the accusations leveled against in this thread just aren't true or fair on Hyperion, and it's that that I have a problem with.
Many people taking their head out of the sand have a problem with this kind of attitude (3rd post and first official response to Update 3 issue):
