The real Windows 7 testers?

Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversMicrosoft claims that over 10 million people contributed to the Windows 7 Beta some way through the opt-in Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP).
Surely the significance of suggestions coming in from so many testers would have an impact on the way Microsoft looked at Windows 7 during development, right? Maybe not.
Mary Jo Foley from ZDNet reveals that Microsoft had hand-picked 40 or so individuals who she refers to as the “real” Windows 7 testers. These so-called “Test Pilots” are the ones who had the most impact in regards to submitting feedback to the Windows team during development. The Test Pilots also received builds a lot earlier than everyone else that was part of the testing community. Taking into consideration Microsoft’s emphasis on telemetry gathered from the community, it is very well possible that these Test Pilots and the TAP partners were the only real external parties that had any real impact on the final product of Windows 7. You can read the rest of Mary Jo’s story here.
Microsoft continues to insist that this is not true by continously stating across all its blogs that testers’ feedback made a difference in Windows 7. In spite of Microsoft’s statements, the general response from the beta testing community of Windows 7 has not been too positive. Testers have been complaining about the vague responses received for their suggestions and complaints, that mostly comprised of phrases such as “by design” or “won’t fix”

waaaagh!!! da red wunz go
fastah!
ahaa! are those pilots were idiots? they did not see those things that we saw? such as:
disappearing of the desktop, how about installing of cs4. but the most crucial effects is
when browsing or using media player while you are coping files from one computer to other
the speed is not stable at all, if somebody tried to use windows 7 in realtime on domain
and workgroup then someone will understand. maybe we are a bad pilots afterall because
windows always crashing. and how about that bugs in internet explorer saying
"administrator is not allowin to login".. oh my!... those pilots are blind.
so that miscrewedsick will understand i will upload those real bugs on the youtube.
