Why do you keep on suggesting that bugs were not picked up during testing? Did you participate in the beta tests yourself, or is this speculation? I saw enough bugs in the first few minutes of using this software (and then confirmed them on different setups) to know the quality gate was set unusually low for a release.
There are threads about this.
In a nutshell, some people experienced this during testing BUT it was not reproducible (even with the same hardware IIRC). If a bug isn't reproducible, even when trying to invoke it (and other users with the same hardware aren't able to reproduce it), you don't stall the release because 999 times out of 1,000, it's just a configuration issue on that one tester's machine.
So, while this happened to you the first time, it didn't for many others. Naturally, when it happens to you it probably seems like it must be happening like that for everyone. But this is actually pretty rare (apparently).
Personally, I've not recommended R12 or R+ for this very reason. Last thing I want is for someone else to be stuck with broken software.
I've also refrained from using R12 (I tried it out for a few days without any issues, but I don't want to take any chances).
