All too often, people may form their opinions of a given product based on messages to the list or lists dedicated to that product and it's important to remember that on those lists, you rarely hear from the 99.5% of users who are perfectly satisfied with the product and the company that sells it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Hill" <hillco@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, September 30, 2005 9:42 PM Subject: [bookport] Re: Bookport Stability I think it is easy to forget that people who join a list and post problems are a self-selected component of the population of users. I fix computers, nobody calls when things are going right, and many are the same when it comes to support lists for products.
