There are enough bad days in my life. I don't need to deliberately create more of them. The second letter in the Greek alphabet. Think about it. It speaks volumes.
Beta testing is for nerds.
I'm jealous only of the nifty new hardware beta testers buy in order to meet or top the basic requirements for an application in beta. The beta testers I know say they also receive beta via FedEx, UPS, and even snail mail. It doesn't take a CPA to calculate the cost of being a beta tester. Maybe they like root canals, too. A beta tester has to possess either an extremely high intelligence quotient or no IQ at all.
