>no known bugs I don't think I have ever heard that phrase. Every non-trivial piece of software I have ever worked on has a collection of bugs that just get carried forward indefinitely ie hard to fix, only affects a small number of people and there is an easy work around so just ignore it. The idea of having zero open bugs is... foreign.

I wrote a set of Windows device drivers in the 1998-1999 time frame for machinery control software that has been in continuous use since around 2002 (when the product was released). There has been a grand total of one bug reported. And that one required a hardware fault before it would be visible.
