RE: 50 BETA testers
50 Testers isn't wierd for a program such as Messenger Discovery or Messenger Plus!. In fact Plus! had 50 testers or even more while Plus! 2.00 was being tested. It's now a bit less, but still around 30 or 40 i believe.
Every person test things in a diffrent way, and not every tester is able to test on old systems like Windows 98 or even 95, or can test with unicode systems. Yet these things are very important to test too. The more testers the better as long as it doesn't get ridiculous. Also i depends on how experienced testers are and how much time they put into testing. A completely bug free product is something that never happens to any software, but it's always nice to aim for.
