To be fair, that statement can't be entirely true. For example, there have been at least two upgrades to the PS3 OS that bricked hardware pretty widely: http://www.techhive.com/article/2042402/sony-pulls-ps3-update-after-complaints-it-bricks-consoles.html http://www.sticktwiddlers.com/2011/05/18/news-ps3-firmware-update-causing-consoles-to-overheat/ <= this is the one that killed my first PS3 I also don't think 'UI changes' are the only things users have to get used to after an upgrade. There are always bugs introduced, no? For example, I have an issue with my new PS3 after a recent upgrade, that the Hulu app causes the console to lock up and reboot. My GalaxyS4 isn't without flaw either. A recent OTA update seems to have affected the GPS in a negative way, so it takes several minutes to lock on to my location now and it didn't before. Updating Cyanogenmod is also a 'block off your entire weekend' kind of task, not something done lightly - almost bricked my Evo4G when I went from CM7 to CM9. Maybe Cyanogenmod is a poor example though since the manufacturers aren't really on board there - then again maybe a good example as they aren't really on board for us, either. Maybe it's improved since then though? ~m -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
