It's important to remember when reading public comments or listening to
others that for some reason it's the human condition that those who are
unhappy with something make a bigger fuss about it than those who are
happy with that same thing. I don't know the exact ratio, but in my
experience it's usually 1/3 or less of people who use something may be
unhappy with it yet they will produce 3/4 of the public comments on it,
writing on blogs or in letters to the editor or op-ed pieces of their
unhappiness, so the public gets a lopsided idea about that thing and
people with no experience will pass on the negative rumblings so that it
appears that *everybody* must be unhappy with it.
All based on a relatively small but extremely vocal sample of total users.
