I had never heard of this before, had you? But I understood him to say that if
turned on the user would have an option to click the button to report any error
to a MS server (somewhat as now) and the developer could have MS forward that
report on to him by email. When asked how large a developer had to be to avail
himself of the service he replied all ,even single shop developers, would only
need to signup to receive the reports - I can hear the oh my gawd MS is scooping
up my info already. ;-)
