A very good example of this was the release of the 64-bit capable Aperture. While it was good for the user that you provided a "32-bit compatibility relaunch mode", it essentially left all of your third-party developers with a bit of egg on their face and scrambling to get the products back up to par.

Apologies to other list members for my ineptitude in unsubscribing from the list. But you'll probably understand why with responses like this.

Added to my black list. Hope you have the option to as well.
