Why is this so much fun?

[dell_jockey]

Hi PB DevTeam and all others,

I've participated in quite a few beta programs, so I have a general question about beta programs:

can someone please explain why testing/using the new 4.0 betas is soooo much more fun than those other programs I've been in? Even if I could report only a single error myself, this time it is FUN !

Because Fred actually cares about his users, which means he lets us help
shape PureBasic's destiny. It's awesome! This is why no other Basic can
come close to PureBasic. If something isn't quite right, and you tell Fred, and
he agrees, he'll change it. That sort of support and willingness to listen is why
I ditched Visual Basic for PureBasic. It may not be as "mature" as Visual Basic,
but I'll take the "raw" feeling of PureBasic over the "clinical" feeling of VB any day!

True.

The kind of open_mind and care about users comunnity that Fred and PB team shows in not usuall at all and is something very very nice and VERY proffessional.
