Someone released a windows xp pirated edition on a blog one time. Bloat removed, PAE, many fixes and new features. The post also had many comments. One described something not working. The dev replied: Thats terrible! Wait! then replied again 15 minutes later: Download the new release, it should be fixed now. There were more comments following the same format.

Imagine that, they fixed the bugs... they fixed the bugs immediately.
