That wouldn't apply here, this wouldn't be illegal as it wouldn't be fraud or similar.

While I agree with you about the level of complexity and sophistication, which also implies there will be SOME unavoidable problems due to pushing frontiers, on the other hand, those suckers ain't cheap at all. What you're saying is very akin to someone spending a boatload of money for a Bugatti Veyron (which is a technology and performance tour-de-force) and be told by the dealer/company "sorry, we still haven't worked out the bugs so hush and just grin and bear it". I don't know about you but personally, but if I was a consumer who spend a ton of money for something unique/phenomenal/whatever, my expectations would be a lot higher regarding quality and/or lack of any problems, vs getting something less capable but cheaper; I would expect (and live with) a few problems or inconveniences for a $50K car, but I wouldn't be thrilled if I had the same issues with a $1 mil car for example.

While I'm not "condoning" or whatnot Patrick's comment, I will say that Boeing (and the culture within) isn't what it used to be BEFORE the McDonnel-Douglas merger; that merger put the wrong people in charge and seeded the wrong profits-over-everything-else mindset/culture, and it eventually caught up with them (as one would expect). At least that's what a couple of longtime Boeing engineer friends of mine have stated in separate occasions, and seeing what has transpired ever since then, I don't have a reason NOT to believe them. Regardless, I sincerely hope they learned their lesson, but knowing how corporate greed works, I won't hold my breath. (for too long anyway) Only time will tell.

LOL, that would make too much sense, and also not allow as many ads!
