That shouldn't be an excuse for major mistakes like the Norton antivirus example.

That ended up in a lawsuit and Microsoft needed to pay loads of money for it.
It would be fine when it was a closed beta, but it isn't. Many people rely on their software. There are enough people who don't know what beta means and don't know any better then "Microsoft is a trusted company, so I can trust all their software blindly".
